A new "recap fold" message type appears in transcripts, styled like other non-animated summary messages

What

Claude Code's transcript renderer now supports a new message kind called "recap_fold", shown using a new RecapFoldMessage component. It's treated the same way as existing speaker_label/work_segment messages for metadata headers and animation: it never animates in and never appears as a top-level metadata message.

Why

This adds a new way for Claude Code to fold a recap or summary into the transcript display, presented consistently with similar existing message types.
