fix(sessions): stop pinning the w1-myapp placeholder as Claude's /resume title (#457)

* fix(sessions): stop pinning the w1-myapp placeholder as Claude's /resume title

Local claude spawns passed the tab name as `--name`. That flag is not only the
cross-session peer name: it is also the prompt-box label, the `/resume` picker
entry and the terminal title, and a pinned title stops Claude generating its own
(`customTitle ?? aiTitle`). So every conversation of a case was listed in
`/resume` as the same `w1-myapp`, and none of them got a generated title. On one
workspace, 34 of 34 conversations spawned with `--name` had no ai-title, while
every conversation spawned without it had one.

Only a name the user chose is pinned now: `Session.cliPinnedName` is the name
when `nameSource === 'manual'`, carried to the builders as a separate `cliName`
so the tab/mux name is untouched. Placeholder and auto names let Claude title
the conversation again.

A rename in Codeman also reaches `/resume`: the new name is appended to the
conversation's transcript as the `custom-title` row `/rename` writes (never
creating the file, never writing an empty title). For a pane spawned without
`--name` this holds immediately; a pane spawned with one re-appends its own
title each turn, so there the new name holds from the next spawn.

* fix(sessions): skip no-op renames and docker sessions when syncing the /resume title

A same-name PUT (the Session Options field saves on blur and recomposes the
unchanged placeholder) no longer flips nameSource to manual or appends a
custom-title row, and docker sessions skip the host transcript scan since their
transcript lives in the container. The skill pages no longer use a w<N>- name
as the peer-name example, and the changeset notes the re-append caveat.

* docs: record that nameSource decides --name and renames reach /resume

**Session lineage lines** (tab → tab it spawned, `sessionLineageLines`, per-device, desktop default ON): a create request may name its spawner via a `parentSessionId` body field or the `X-Codeman-Parent-Session` header; `resolveParentSessionId()` (route-helpers.ts) resolves it (exact id or unique ≥8-char prefix, live, visible, same owner) and ⚠️ anything unresolvable is DROPPED, never a 400. Rides `toState()`, no new SSE event. ⚠️ Rendering is a LAYER on the existing SVG pass (`_appendLineageConnectionLines` at the tail of `_updateConnectionLinesImmediate()`), geometry pure in `computeLineagePath()`: one U-bridge shape hanging from the strip bottom, colors keyed on the SPAWNING tab and memoized (never by draw index). ⚠️ Desktop only (z-index vs the fixed mobile header). ⚠️ Paths must keep `data-agent-id="lineage:<childId>"` (the entrance animation queries it); skip edges whose endpoint is scrolled out of the strip. → [architecture-invariants#session-lineage-lines-tab--tab-it-spawned](docs/architecture-invariants.md#session-lineage-lines-tab--tab-it-spawned)
**Auto-named sessions** (`autoNameSessions`, SYNCED, default OFF): a placeholder tab (`w3-myapp`) takes its first real prompt as a title in the `<prefix>: <title>` form, so the case identity and `w<n>` counter survive. Ownership is `SessionState.nameSource` (`placeholder` | `auto` | `manual`; the `name` setter / `PUT /api/sessions/:id/name` makes it `manual`, never touched again). ⚠️ `applyAutoName()` flips to `auto` even if the string is unchanged, so only the FIRST titled prompt names the tab. ⚠️ Only user input counts: `SessionWriteOptions.fromUser` is set by the browser WS path and `POST /api/sessions/:id/input` ONLY; any new user-input path must set it (and the send-key Shift+Enter path must call `trackUserInput()`). ⚠️ The pure tracker (`session-auto-name.ts`) sits on the raw keystroke stream with an explicit rule per key; add a rule for any new key class. Tests: `test/session-auto-name.test.ts`. → [architecture-invariants#auto-named-sessions-first-prompt--tab-title](docs/architecture-invariants.md#auto-named-sessions-first-prompt--tab-title)

**Maintainer bot (external)**: the Telegram bot that reviews open PRs and triages discussion threads in Codeman sessions used to live at `scripts/pr-bot/`. It moved OUT of this repository on 2026-09-14, to `~/codeman-cases/prbot/` (its own private git repo, systemd unit `codeman-pr-bot`, guide + agent rules in its own `README.md` and `CLAUDE.md`). It is a CLIENT of Codeman's HTTP API like any other, so nothing here depends on it and it is not part of the server, the CLI or the npm package. ⚠️ It spawns real sessions named `prbot-<n>` / `dscbot-<n>` on the local Codeman and holds clones under `~/.codeman/pr-bot/`, so those session names and that data dir are taken; it also fetches PR heads into `refs/pr-bot/*` of this checkout and must never check out, reset or clean it. The CHANGELOG entries for 1.25.0 and earlier still describe it, which is history rather than drift.
