molluskandClaude Opus 4.8 2621576ed9 feat(chat): clickable links in chat messages (A13)
Chat messages rendered URLs as plain text. Now http/https URLs render as
clickable links that open in the system browser (xdg-open).

- New pure `sanitize::linkify` splits an (already-sanitized) message into
  text/URL segments: conservative — only http:// and https:// runs, ending at
  whitespace, with trailing prose punctuation peeled back out; reassembling the
  segments reproduces the input exactly. +6 unit tests.
- Chat render uses iced `rich_text` with link spans + `on_link_click`.
- `OpenUrl` handler re-validates the http(s) scheme (defence in depth) before
  spawning xdg-open with the URL as a single argv entry (no shell, no injection).

Linkify only runs after `sanitize_chat`, so control/format chars are already
gone. 214 lib tests green, clippy clean. Manual check: send a message with a
URL, click it.

//! Sanitizers for untrusted peer-supplied strings shared across layers.

//! untrusted and spoofable, yet they're rendered directly in the roster. This

//! gets a safe value (security finding S4). Chat text has its own sanitizer in
//! the UI layer (`app::sanitize_chat`).
