fix(tui): reflow scrollback on terminal resize (#18575)

Fixes multiple scrollback and terminal resize issues: #5538, #5576,
#8352, #12223, #16165, and #15380.

## Why

Codex writes finalized transcript output into terminal scrollback after
wrapping it for the current viewport width. A later terminal resize
could leave that scrollback shaped for the old width, so wider windows
kept narrow output and narrower windows could show stale wrapping
artifacts until enough new output replaced the visible area.

This is also the foundation PR for responsive markdown tables. Table
rendering needs finalized transcript content to be width-sensitive after
insertion, not only while content is first streaming. Markdown table
rendering itself stays in #18576.

## Stack

- PR1: resize backlog reflow and interrupt cleanup
- #18576: markdown table support

## What Changed

- Rebuild source-backed transcript history when the terminal width
changes. `terminal_resize_reflow` is introduced through the experimental
feature system, but is enabled by default for this rollout so we can
validate behavior across real terminals.
- Preserve assistant and plan stream source so finalized streaming
output can participate in resize reflow after consolidation.
- Debounce resize work, but force a final source-backed reflow when a
resize happened during active or unconsolidated streaming output.
- Clear stale pending history lines on resize so old-width wrapped
output is not emitted just before rebuilt scrollback.
- Bound replay work with `[tui.terminal_resize_reflow].max_rows`:
omitted uses terminal-specific defaults, `0` keeps all rendered rows,
and a positive value sets an explicit cap. The cap applies both while
initially replaying a resumed transcript into scrollback and when
rebuilding scrollback after terminal resize.
- Consolidate interrupted assistant streams before cleanup, then clear
pending stream output and active-tail state consistently.
- Move resize reflow and thread event buffering helpers out of `app.rs`
into dedicated TUI modules.
- Add focused coverage for resize reflow, feature-gated behavior,
streaming source preservation, interrupted output cleanup,
unicode-neutral text, terminal-specific row caps, and composer/layout
stability.

## Runtime Bounds

Resize reflow keeps only the most recent rendered rows when a row cap is
active. The default is `auto`, which maps to the detected terminal's
default scrollback size where Codex can identify it: VS Code `1000`,
Windows Terminal `9001`, WezTerm `3500`, and Alacritty `10000`.
Terminals without a dedicated mapping use the conservative fallback of
`1000` rows. Users can override this with `[tui.terminal_resize_reflow]
max_rows = N`, or set `max_rows = 0` to disable row limiting.

## Validation

- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check`
- `cargo test --manifest-path codex-rs/Cargo.toml -p codex-tui reflow`
- `cargo test --manifest-path codex-rs/Cargo.toml -p codex-tui
transcript_reflow`
- `just fix -p codex-tui`
- PR CI in progress on the squashed branch
