hugocasa 164e499c64 feat: add variable and resource types to flow env variables (#8214)
* feat: add variable and resource types to flow env variables

Flow env variables can now reference workspace variables ($var:path)
and resources ($res:path) that are resolved at runtime. Adds Variable
and Resource type options to the flow env editor with ItemPicker and
ResourcePicker components, and resolves references in both the flow
worker (via transform_json) and the API fallback endpoint.

* fix(frontend): use inline DollarSign icon for variable picker

Replace the separate "Pick" button with the standard inline DollarSign
icon overlay that appears on hover, matching the existing ArgInput
pattern. Also add the icon to the string type input for quick variable
linking from any string field.
