Subject: [PATCH] feat(split): Pane B reconnects as soon as the server is back

When SSE comes back after a server restart, handleInit's reconnect
branch already re-opens the primary pane's socket; it now also calls
the split pane tile's reconnectNow(), so Pane B no longer waits out its
backoff (up to 10 s between tries) after every deploy. Live: Pane B was
back 4.6 s after the server process respawned, i.e. as soon as it
listened.
