fix(tui): the shell inspector follows a running job; Alt+V keeps the clicked card

Refs #6931. Acceptance 4 (follow mode; refresh without the model's cursor)
and acceptance 1 (a new card never takes over the target).

Follow mode:
- When the Bash Job pager opens on a running job, it records the job id.
- On its 2.5 s tick, the event loop re-reads that job through
  `inspect_job_for_session`. This is a bounded read, under try_lock as
  `refresh_shell_exec_live_output` does, and never touches the model's
  output cursor. The event loop then swaps the text into the open pager.
- A view at the bottom stays pinned to the newest row. Scrolling up, Home,
  `gg` or a search jump stops following; End, `G` or scrolling back to the
  bottom resumes it.
- When the job ends or leaves the session, refresh stops and Stop is
  removed, because it no longer applies (acceptance 5: inapplicable
  controls are disabled).
- The Status line reads "running · no output for 2m 05s" once a live job
  has been quiet for QUIET_NO_OUTPUT_AFTER. It uses the label the exec card
  already uses.
- `ViewStack::top_pager_mut` is the downcast, next to `refresh_extensions`.

Alt+V target:
- 674dcc364d sent Alt+V with no selection to the newest running shell on
  screen before anything else. That bypassed
  `detail_cell_index_for_viewport`, which the footer hint also uses. So a
  running card that scrolled into view took over the completed card the
  user was reading, and the hint and the key disagreed. Alt+V now resolves
  only through `detail_target_cell_index`.
  `newest_visible_running_shell_cell` is deleted. A running shell stays
  reachable by click, by the work dock and by /jobs.
- A selection stored only its rendered line. When a run of successful tool
  cards collapsed above it, or cells were appended while an active cell was
  open, that line pointed at another card. A click now also records its
  owner cell as the existing `TranscriptActionOwner` (cell index plus
  transcript identity epoch). Space-fold already uses it.
  `rebase_active_cell_bindings` shifts the owner with the other bindings.
  Any other identity change (folds, rollback) invalidates it, and the
  target falls back to the line. Alt+V, the detail target and Ctrl+O
  prefer the owner.
- CHANGELOG lines that advertised the old Alt+V rule are corrected.

Known limits, stated in shell_job_routing.rs:
- new output reaches the pager up to 2.5 s late;
- the work dock's inspector is still a snapshot;
- delegated agents' shells appear in /jobs and the dock with their Owner,
  not in the agent's detail;
- named PTYs live in the terminal dock (#6912).

Focused tests: the issue asks for them in acceptance 7.
- pager: follow, unfollow and resume, and dropping Stop when the job ends;
- shell_job_routing: a silent running job reads quiet, not stale, with
  "(no output yet)";
- the existing stale-list test now shares the snapshot fixture.

Evidence: cargo fmt --all clean. clippy -p codewhale-tui --lib --tests
(-D warnings) is running locally on this exact tree; the focused tests
run in hosted CI on codewhale-hq/Codewhale#6957.
