`resolveFolderWorkspaceHost` inferred a workspace's host by reading
`repo.connectionId` directly. SSH ownership has two spellings on a repo row, and
a row carrying only `executionHostId: 'ssh:<target>'` has no `connectionId` to
read — so it counted as a local repo and the workspace resolved `{ kind: 'local' }`.
That is an execute-here answer for a workspace whose files are on an SSH host,
the #11163 class, and it fires on a well-formed row.
Resolve the host first, then read the target off it. Every other row keeps its
existing contribution, including a `runtime:` row's nested SSH target: that
target is not this client's to dial, but narrowing it here would be a second
behaviour change riding on this one. The runtime branch above still answers
`local`, and now says so — `FolderWorkspaceHost` has no runtime variant, and
widening the type is its own change, not an oversight to be silently corrected.
Three smaller items that stand on their own:
- `resolveWorktreeExecutionHost` gains a `malformed` reason distinct from
`unknown`. `unknown` (nothing carries the id) is a verdict the launch path may
legitimately dispose of as a plain local folder; `malformed` (the row named a
host that cannot be parsed) must fail closed. One word for two situations is
the shape that lost the distinction in #18006. The strict read is private to
that module: `getRepoExecutionHostId` stays the answer everywhere else, since
its fall-through to `local` is harmless for the grouping, label and index
callers that are nearly all of its ~340 call sites.
- `readAllWorktreeMetaForRepo` / `readWorktreeMetaForRepo` replace four
open-coded copies of the same host-qualified read (the F7/F8 lockstep shape).
- `getExecutionHostLabel` answers 'Unknown host' rather than 'All hosts' for an
id that names no host. Showing one unroutable row as though it were on every
host is wrong on its own terms. Plain English like every other label in that
module, none of which resolve through the renderer's i18n catalog.
