Merge Sim 4695fd88a1 feat(mobile): structured native Claude chat
Mobile already spoke the structured agent-session protocol for Codex, and the
host already had a Claude capability gate — mobile just never advertised it, so
`projectAgentSessionTabsOut` stripped every Claude tab before it left the
desktop. The structured lane in mobile/ turned out to be agent-agnostic already
(shared reducer, message projection, option catalog, prompt tokens), so this
opens the gate rather than building a second lane:

- advertise `agent-session.structured.claude.v1`
- resolve any structured provider in `resolveMobileNativeChat` via the shared
  `isAgentSessionHandleProvider`, instead of a `'codex'` literal
- widen the `agent-session` route type off `'codex'`
- route bare Claude launches through `agentSession.createSupport` like Codex,
  which still degrades to a terminal when the host refuses (remote, WSL, win32,
  managed-account mismatch, or structured chat switched off)

Deduplicate the create envelope. Renderer and mobile each assembled the
`agentSession.create` params by hand; the fingerprint has to be computed over
the same fields the host recomputes, so both now build it in one shared
`structuredAgentSessionCreateParams`. Mobile's Codex-only launcher becomes
`createMobileStructuredAgentSession(client, worktreeId, agent)` and reuses the
shared display-name map; two copies of a random-UUID fallback collapse into one.

Answer grouped Claude questions. A Claude AskUserQuestion carrying more than one
question — or one multi-select question — is emitted with the real content in
`body.questions` and the flat `options` left EMPTY, so mobile rendered a card
with nothing to tap and the turn stalled with no way out. Codex never emits this
shape. The phone has room for one question at a time, so the group is answered
as steps and submitted once, reusing the shared
`encodeAgentSessionQuestionAnswers` / `isValidAgentSessionQuestionAnswers`
rather than a second encoding.

Prompt responses move into `useMobileStructuredPromptResponses` because grouped
questions carry a multi-step draft the rest of the session does not touch, and
the session hook was at the 300-line cap.

Pin the mobile capability list against the host's parser bounds: it fails closed
to NO capabilities when the array exceeds 64 entries, which would look exactly
like an old client.

Re-pin mobile-session-route-parity: the create-actions edit drops one runtime
string literal and changes one nested function body. Ablated to confirm that
file is the sole cause.
