/update and /restart no longer mention artifact comment monitoring in their refusal messages

What

When /update or a restart is refused, for example because the session was resumed from a different project directory or a background task is running, the message no longer checks whether an artifact 'comment monitor' task is active and no longer adjusts its wording for that case. The messages for transcript-path drift and for background tasks running are now fixed text, without the earlier note that restarting would stop auto-replies to artifact comments.

Why

The refusal messages are simpler and no longer vary based on whether artifact comment monitoring happens to be running, so the caveat about losing auto-replies to comments is no longer shown even if that monitoring is active.
