jif-oai eb0462f2af app-server: refresh live threads from latest config snapshot (#21187)
## Why

App-server config writes were leaving existing threads partially stale.
After a config mutation, the app-server told each live thread to run
`Op::ReloadUserConfig`, but that path only re-read the user
`config.toml` layer. Settings that came from the app-server's
materialized config snapshot did not propagate to existing threads until
restart.

This change prevent a FS access from `core` for CCA.

## What changed

- add `CodexThread::refresh_runtime_config()` and
`Session::refresh_runtime_config()` so the app-server can push a freshly
rebuilt config snapshot into a live thread
- rebuild the latest config with each thread's `cwd` after config
mutations, then refresh the thread from that snapshot instead of asking
it to reload only `config.toml`
- keep session-static settings unchanged during refresh, while updating
runtime-refreshable state such as the config layer stack,
`tool_suggest`, and derived hook/plugin/skill state
- keep `reload_user_config_layer()` as the file-backed fallback for
legacy local reload flows, but route the shared refresh logic through
the new runtime refresh path

## Testing

- add a session test that verifies `refresh_runtime_config()` rebuilds
hooks from refreshed config
- add a session test that verifies runtime-refreshable fields update
while session-static settings like `model` and `notify` stay unchanged
