fix(tui): pass CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN to spawned claude + reap defunct sessions

Root cause (PI231 incident): tmux does not forward the parent's env to the
pane, so the TUI claude never saw CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN and fell back to
~/.claude/.credentials.json, whose single-use refresh token got corrupted to an
empty string by the per-request spawn + kill-session teardown racing claude's
token rotation -> permanent "Please run /login" 401 (re-login re-corrupted on
the next spawn). Connected leak: the pane's claude is a child of the tmux server
(not node), so kill-session left <defunct> zombies the server never reaped (25
over 30 days; tmux kill-server dropped it 25->3).

Fix 1: buildTuiCmd now adds CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN=<shq-escaped> to the pane
env prefix when the env is set, so claude authenticates via the long-lived token
and never touches the credentials.json refresh path (matching stable hosts).
Unset -> no token added (credentials.json-only hosts unaffected).

Fix 2: reapStaleTuiSessions kill-servers after clearing our own sessions ONLY
when no foreign tmux session remains (never disrupts a co-hosted olp-tui-*).
kill-server is the only node-reachable action that ACTUALLY reaps -- server exit
reparents survivors to init, which waitpids them; a per-session kill cannot,
since node is not the zombies' parent. Added a 15-min periodic reap (server.mjs)
gated on TUI_MODE and on the TUI path being idle. Residual: a request whose pane
is created in the idle-check/kill-server window fails cleanly via the existing
honesty gates (documented).

ALIGNMENT: Class B (OCP-owned TUI spawn). cli.js does NOT perform either
operation -- there is no cli.js analogue for "how the TUI pane authenticates" or
"reaping tmux-server-owned zombies"; authorized by ADR 0007 (PR-C amendment) per
ALIGNMENT.md's Class B citation requirement. No Class A wire surface, no endpoint
shape, no alignment.yml token, and no models.json entry touched.

Tests: +6 in test-features.mjs (buildTuiCmd token set/unset/shq-injection;
reaper kill-server ours-only / foreign-present / no-server). 241 passed, 0 failed.
