Forking a conversation seeds the message cache

Forking a conversation preloads its message index, so the first lookups skip re-reading the file.

What

After a fork writes the new transcript, the set of message ids for the new session is inserted straight into the transcript store's in-memory cache, so later lookups do not re-read the file just written. Insert is skipped if an entry is already there.

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