core: bundle settings diff updates into one dev/user envelope (#12417)

## Summary
- bundle contextual prompt injection into at most one developer message
plus one contextual user message in both:
  - per-turn settings updates
  - initial context insertion
- preserve `<model_switch>` across compaction by rebuilding it through
canonical initial-context injection, instead of relying on
strip/reattach hacks
- centralize contextual user fragment detection in one shared definition
table and reuse it for parsing/compaction logic
- keep `AGENTS.md` in its natural serialized format:
  - `# AGENTS.md instructions for {dirname}`
  - `<INSTRUCTIONS>...</INSTRUCTIONS>`
- simplify related tests/helpers and accept the expected snapshot/layout
updates from bundled multi-part messages

## Why
The goal is to converge toward a simpler, more intentional prompt shape
where contextual updates are consistently represented as one developer
envelope plus one contextual user envelope, while keeping parsing and
compaction behavior aligned with that representation.

## Notable details
- the temporary `SettingsUpdateEnvelope` wrapper was removed; these
paths now return `Vec<ResponseItem>` directly
- local/remote compaction no longer rely on model-switch strip/restore
helpers
- contextual user detection is now driven by shared fragment definitions
instead of ad hoc matcher assembly
- AGENTS/user instructions are still the same logical context; only the
synthetic `<user_instructions>` wrapper was replaced by the natural
AGENTS text format

## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server
codex_message_processor::tests::extract_conversation_summary_prefers_plain_user_messages
-- --exact`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
compact::tests::collect_user_messages_filters_session_prefix_entries
--lib -- --exact`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all

- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all

- `cargo test -p core_test_support

--exact`

## Notes
- I also ran several targeted `compact`, `compact_remote`,
`prompt_caching`, `model_visible_layout`, and `event_mapping` tests
while iterating on prompt-shape changes.
- I have not claimed a clean full-workspace `cargo test` from this
environment because local sandbox/resource conditions have previously
produced unrelated failures in large workspace runs.
