preserve channel description paragraph breaks (#6946)

**Category:** fix
**User Impact:** Channel descriptions now keep their paragraph structure
everywhere people and agents read them.

**Problem:** Multi-paragraph channel descriptions were flattened in the
desktop interface and in agent context, making operational instructions
harder to scan and potentially changing their meaning. A running agent
harness could also continue using a stale description after someone
edited it.

**Solution:** Preserve authored line and paragraph breaks across the
desktop surfaces, and render descriptions as bounded, indented
agent-context blocks with semantic delimiters escaped. Prompt-visible
channel metadata now refreshes before each turn with cached fallback,
while one shared desktop derivation keeps the header and channel intro
consistent.

<details>
<summary>File changes</summary>

**crates/buzz-acp/src/pool.rs**
Refresh prompt-visible kind-39000 metadata with one bounded request per
turn so edits reach running harnesses, while retaining cached metadata
as a degradation fallback. Add regression coverage for description edits
and update request-count fixtures for the refresh lifecycle.

**crates/buzz-acp/src/prompt_framing.rs**
Add semantic text escaping for untrusted values embedded inside paired
prompt sections.

**crates/buzz-acp/src/queue.rs**
Render multi-paragraph descriptions as indented context blocks, preserve
blank lines, retain the 500-character limit, and escape semantic
delimiters. Add helper- and full-prompt tests for paragraph
preservation, UTF-8-safe truncation, and adversarial input.

**desktop/src/features/channels/lib/channelDescription.ts**
Introduce one shared channel-detail derivation and preserve newlines
between status context and authored detail text.

**desktop/src/features/channels/lib/channelDescription.test.mjs**
Cover shared field precedence, multiline descriptions, status-prefix
separation, and fallback behavior.

**desktop/src/features/channels/ui/ChannelPane.helpers.ts**
Use the shared channel-detail derivation for the channel intro instead
of maintaining a second field order.

**desktop/src/features/channels/ui/ChannelPane.helpers.test.mjs**
Verify description text wins consistently over legacy purpose text when
both are present.

**desktop/src/features/channels/ui/ChannelManagementSheetRows.tsx**
Preserve paragraph whitespace in editable and read-only channel
summaries and allow enough lines for compact multi-paragraph
descriptions.

**desktop/src/features/channels/ui/ChannelManagementSheetRows.test.mjs**
Render both channel-summary variants and assert the multiline whitespace
and four-line clamp contract.

**desktop/src/features/messages/ui/ChannelIntroBlock.tsx**
Display description line and paragraph breaks in the empty-channel
intro.

**desktop/src/features/messages/ui/ChannelIntroBlock.test.mjs**
Add render-level coverage for the intro's multiline whitespace contract.

</details>

## Reproduction steps

1. Run the desktop app and create an empty channel.
2. Give it a description with two paragraphs, including a blank line and
a multi-line second paragraph, then save and reopen channel management.
3. Confirm the empty-channel intro preserves the blank line and
subsequent line breaks.
4. Confirm the channel-management summary shows the paragraph structure
for both an editor and a read-only member rather than a detached
ellipsis.
5. Hover the channel title and confirm its tooltip keeps the
description's line breaks.
6. Add an agent, send one prompt, edit the description, then send
another prompt. Confirm the next generated agent context contains the
updated description as an indented multiline block.

## Screenshot

A real-app screenshot of the multiline channel intro and
channel-management summary is attached in the PR comments below.

Closes AIDA-1980.
