Teknium 62f376279b feat(desktop): cross-connection Bot Mode — Create-on picker + multi-machine group chats
Builds on the salvaged #88598 multi-source roster work:

- New Agent "Create on" picker (multi-connection registries only): the
  profiles.create/configure/describe/mcp.catalog calls route to the picked
  connection's backend via host.requestProfile route descriptors — the
  window's active gateway never switches. Remote-target drafts discard via
  the remote CLI; appearance/title write into the remote profile's ui_meta
  and asset store; the taken-name check is scoped to the target machine's
  roster; the live SkillsView Capabilities tab (active-gateway-bound) falls
  back to the staged checklists for remote targets.

- Group chats can seat bots from other registered connections: member turns
  (session.create/resume, prompt.submit, reply polling) route to each
  member's own source through the new requestForBot helper. Remote member
  descriptors persist on the room record (bot-meta is active-gateway-scoped
  by design); watermarks/sessions key by source-qualified member keys so
  same-named agents on two machines never share state; @name-device handles
  resolve in room mentions; room lines and turn prompts badge cross-machine
  speakers with their device.

- pidIsOurDashboard: a dead remote PID (ps exits non-zero) now reads as
  FOREIGN instead of throwing "Could not verify SSH backend process
  ownership" — the misleading error from #88625's secondary report.

Tests: cross-connection-bots.test.mjs (route descriptors, requestForBot
routing, member keys, disambiguated mentions, device badges, source
contracts); plugin suite 180/180; electron vitest 220/220.
