Eric Traut 70e8fe1be3 Add opt-in automatic background server startup (#46117) ...

## What changed

- Add `features.daemon_auto_start`, disabled by default and available through `/experimental`, to start the shared local server for eligible new, resumed, and forked sessions. Changes take effect on the next launch, and disabling the feature persists an explicit `false`.
- Require successful daemon startup and connection when auto-start applies. On failure, show guidance to rerun the same command with `--no-daemon` instead of silently falling back to an embedded server.
- Preserve embedded mode for excluded launches, including Bedrock sign-in, and carry exclusion warnings through resume and fork pickers. Honor `--no-daemon` without an exclusion warning.
- Update `/import` guidance to recommend restarting with `codex --no-daemon`.

## Testing

Add CLI and TUI coverage for automatic daemon attachment, startup and connection failures, `--no-daemon`, picker warning persistence, and Bedrock onboarding with and without a running daemon. Add snapshots and configuration-write assertions for the experimental toggle.
