reduce snapshot churn and speed up HistoryId lookups

[ConstantinHvber]

Implement fixes to address long-session TUI lag and history-state mismatch degradation.

• Fix 1: throttle non-forced history snapshot persistence (reduce full snapshot rewrite frequency to 5 secs during rapid UI/progress updates)
• Fix 2: add a lazy HistoryId→cell-index cache with dirty tracking + self-healing lookups; throttle “history-state mismatch” warnings; adjust tool-card/running-tool resolution to use the new lookup; add regression test to keep the index consistent under churn
• Fix startup panic: route the “Connecting MCP servers…” notice through the background helper (avoid inserting BackgroundEvent via “prelude” path) and remove the now-unused helper
• Cleanup: remove non-Linux cgroup stubs and adjust spawn/exec cfg blocks to eliminate macOS warnings

Pull request overview

This PR addresses TUI performance degradation during long sessions by implementing a lazy HistoryId-to-cell-index cache with dirty tracking and self-healing lookups, throttling history snapshot persistence, and fixing a startup panic related to MCP server connection notices.

Key Changes:

• Added a lazy HistoryId→cell-index HashMap cache with dirty tracking and automatic rebuild/self-healing to speed up history cell lookups
• Throttled non-forced history snapshot persistence from 400ms to 5 seconds to reduce I/O during rapid UI updates
• Fixed startup panic by routing "Connecting MCP servers…" notice through the background helper instead of creating a special-case BackgroundEventCell

This still looks directionally useful for long-session TUI lag, but it is draft, non-mergeable, and based on old main. Please rebase, resolve current chatwidget/history-cell divergence, undraft when ready, and include ./build-fast.sh results.
