Neil fb69f00b65 fix(hosts): resolve a folder workspace's SSH host from the repo's host, not its raw connectionId (#18598)
* fix(hosts): resolve a folder workspace's SSH host from the repo's host, not its raw connectionId

`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.

* fix(hosts): resolve the host in candidate selection too, not just in resolution

The first pass fixed how a repo row is classified once it reaches
`resolveFolderWorkspaceHost`. The candidate filter decides which rows reach it at
all, and it read `repo.connectionId` raw as well — so an SSH-only row outside the
project-group subtree was dropped before the new logic could see it, and the
execute-here bug survived for the population the fix was for, via a different
path. Found in review by CodeRabbit.

Three repo-row reads had the same root cause, not one:

- the scope-connection filter, comparing a path repo's raw field against the
  workspace/group connection;
- the group-connection set, built from group repos' raw fields;
- that set's membership test against path repos' raw fields.

The last two are one comparison with the mismatch on either side, so resolving
only the path side would have reintroduced it from the other direction.

All three, plus the resolution loop, now go through one `getRepoScopeConnectionId`
helper. Non-SSH hosts still fall back to the raw field, so a `runtime:` row keeps
contributing its nested target exactly as before.

The new tests use a repo matched only by path, outside the subtree — the
population every existing test missed, which is why four passing revert-tests
did not catch this. One of them is labelled as pinning the resolver rather than
the filter: under the old raw read both rows came back connectionless and matched
each other by accident, so it survives a filter revert and must not be counted as
coverage for it.
