Introduces a /clear slash command that resets the current tab and starts a fresh session in the same working directory. Unlike /new which opens a new tab, /clear reuses the current tab by creating a new session in-place, rebuilding UI components, and updating persisted state. Assisted-By: docker-agent

Assessment: 🟢 APPROVE
This PR successfully implements the /clear command to reset the current tab with a new session. The implementation properly:
- Cleans up the old editor before creating a new one
- Creates a fresh session while preserving the working directory
- Rebuilds all UI components (chat page, editor, session state)
- Updates persisted state to point to the new session ID
- Handles errors from persistence operations with appropriate logging
All hypotheses about potential resource leaks, unchecked errors, and race conditions were investigated and dismissed. The code follows the existing patterns in the codebase for session management and properly reuses the same tab ID while replacing the session.
