Mars a4e7e952e1 fix(ui): strip injected inbound metadata from user messages in history (#22142)
* fix(ui): strip injected inbound metadata from user messages in history

Fixes #21106
Fixes #21109
Fixes #22116

OpenClaw prepends structured metadata blocks ("Conversation info",
"Sender:", reply-context) to user messages before sending them to the
LLM. These blocks are intentionally AI-context-only and must never reach
the chat history that users see.

Root cause:
`buildInboundUserContextPrefix` in `inbound-meta.ts` prepends the
blocks directly to the stored user message content string, so they are
persisted verbatim and later shown in webchat, TUI, and every other
rendering surface.

Fix:
• `src/auto-reply/reply/strip-inbound-meta.ts` — new utility with a
  6-sentinel fast-path strip (zero-alloc on miss) + 9-test suite.
• `src/tui/tui-session-actions.ts` — wraps `chatLog.addUser(...)` with
  `stripInboundMetadata()` so the TUI never stores the prefix.
• `ui/src/ui/chat/message-normalizer.ts` — strips user-role text content
  items during normalisation so webchat renders clean messages.
