feat(claude): advisor tool support, per session and as an App Settings default

Claude Code's advisor tool (code.claude.com/docs/en/advisor) lets the session's
main model consult a second, stronger model at decision points: before
committing to an approach, on a recurring error, and before declaring a task
done. Codeman can now start claude sessions with one.

- `advisorModel` field on POST /api/sessions, /api/quick-start and
  /api/ralph-loop/start (fable, opus, sonnet or a full model id in those
  families; haiku cannot advise and is refused). Stored on the session and
  persisted, so respawn, boot restore and reboot restore keep it. Remote and
  docker quick-starts refuse it, as they refuse effort.
- App Settings, Models, "Advisor" segment (Default / Sonnet / Opus / Fable),
  synced as `claudeAdvisorModel`. Run, resume and the Ralph wizard send it.
  Default sends nothing, leaving the CLI's own /advisor choice in charge.
- Carried as the `advisorModel` key in the launch's single --settings JSON,
  merged with ultracode and the statusLine exporter, never the --advisor
  flag: `claude --advisor haiku` exits 1 at launch, which would leave a dead
  pane on every respawn, while the settings key degrades to no advisor. A
  launch without an advisor is byte-identical to before.

### Models
Claude model cards, the 1M context window switch, and the thinking effort segment. The cards
and the switch compose into one model choice, so there is no separate "which one wins"
question.
Claude model cards, the 1M context window switch, the thinking effort segment and the
advisor segment. The cards and the switch compose into one model choice, so there is no
separate "which one wins" question.
Model and effort are both **soft defaults**: the model is written into the case's
`.claude/settings.local.json` and effort is passed at start, so `/model` and `/effort`
inside a session override them at any time.

**Advisor** gives new Claude sessions Claude Code's
[advisor tool](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/advisor): a second, stronger model that Claude
consults before committing to an approach, when an error keeps coming back, and before it
calls a task done. A common pairing is a Sonnet main model with an Opus or Fable advisor,
which costs less than running the stronger model all the time. **Default** leaves it to
whatever you picked with `/advisor` yourself. The advisor needs the Anthropic API (not
Bedrock or Vertex), and an advisor that ranks below the session's model is simply not
attached.
**Custom model endpoints** (off by default) adds a saved-endpoint list plus a matching
section to the Run dropdown, for pointing a harness at your own OpenAI-compatible server
