Model-cycle shortcut opens /model in cloud sessions instead of just nagging

The model shortcut now actually opens the model picker in cloud sessions instead of just advising you.

What

The model shortcut now does something in cloud sessions rather than only printing advice.

Details
  • Previously the shortcut always showed the feedback notification "Use /model to change the model in cloud sessions".
  • That notification is now shown only when the UI is busy: a dialog is open, the cursor is not at the prompt, or a switch is already in flight.
  • Otherwise the shortcut invokes the model command directly, guarded by a re-entrancy ref.

Use /model to change the model in cloud sessions

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
