feat(sessions): expose reload as a command-palette action and disable when busy

Browse Source 
Add a "Reload Session" core action so reload is keyboard-accessible and can be
assigned a custom shortcut, gated by the same guards as the menu item (writable
session, sessions.reload capability, not currently busy). Disable the Reload
menu entry while the session has active work, mirroring the server guard and the
archived-delete control, so users get a clear reason instead of an error toast.

Add a **Reload** action to the session three-dot menu that re-reads the session from disk. The session daemon keeps an in-memory `SessionManager` per session and never re-reads the session file, so when the same session is also driven by another process (for example the `pi` CLI), new on-disk entries were invisible to the web UI and the tail of the conversation appeared truncated. Reloading closes the active session, re-opens it from disk, discards the cached transcript, and re-fetches the history.
Reload refuses to run while the session has work in progress and on archived (read-only) sessions, and is gated behind a new `sessions.reload` runtime capability so it only appears for machines whose Pi-Web runtime supports it.
Reload is also available from the command palette as **Reload Session**, so it can be triggered from the keyboard and assigned a custom shortcut. Reload refuses to run while the session has work in progress and on archived (read-only) sessions, and is gated behind a new `sessions.reload` runtime capability so it only appears for machines whose Pi-Web runtime supports it (both the menu item and the palette action are disabled otherwise).
Note: this changes a session daemon code path, so `pi-web-sessiond.service` must be restarted manually for the server side of this change to take effect.
