feat(mobile): show idle thread count on the back button - #32701
When you are deep in a thread, there is no glanceable signal of how many other idle threads are waiting back in the list. Web and desktop do not have this back control; mobile does.
The thread back button now shows a Messages-style count of other idle (ready) threads: glass pill, chevron, filled circle with the number. Android gets the same circular count next to the up affordance.
Screenshots
Before
Thread header with the chevron-only back control (no idle count).
After
Same thread header with the idle count in a filled circle on the back control.
Test plan
Open a thread on iOS with other idle threads in the list; confirm the back control shows the count in a circle
Open the only idle thread; confirm the count excludes the open thread (or hides when zero)
Confirm working / approval / settled / archived threads are not counted
Tap the counted back control and land on the chats list
Android: confirm the count appears beside the up affordance (not on split-view return-to-chat)
Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Adds an idle-thread badge to mobile back buttons using existing thread state and navigation. Exposure is limited to header presentation; the reported counting inaccuracies remain subject to the separate correctness gate.

Mobile thread headers calculate idle-thread counts and pass them to AppBar. Eligible back controls display the formatted count and an accessibility label. Tests cover idle-thread eligibility, exclusions, and count formatting.
Adds idle-thread classification and counting, optional current-thread exclusion, and count formatting. The hook memoizes the count from navigation thread shells and the current list time. Tests cover eligibility, exclusions, and formatting.

Restructure the description to match the template: add a Problem section
(expected behavior and environment), a Change section, and a Scope and approval
section that links the triaged issue or the maintainer-approved discussion.
Explain why the change fits an established capability or get approval, since it
changes back-button behavior. In Verification, report the observed results of
each manual check (for example, the count with other idle threads, zero-count
behavior, and the excluded states) and state what was not checked, such as
Android. Add the model and harness that did the work, as the template asks for
agent-assisted work.

When you are in a thread, the list back control now shows how many other idle threads are waiting, Messages-style, so you can see pending Done work without leaving the chat.
Exclude snoozed shelf threads and the open route thread from the badge, refresh when snooze wakes, and give the counted iOS back control a 44pt hit area.
Merged current main into the branch (merge commit, no rebase). The PR conflicted with main in ThreadHeader.tsx, so GitHub could not build a merge ref and most CI jobs never ran. The fix keeps the idle-count hook and adopts main's split of useAdaptiveWorkspaceLayout / useWorkspacePaneState. The PR diff is otherwise unchanged.
vp run check:changed passes: format, lint, knip, typecheck, threadListV2.test.ts, AppBar.android.test.tsx, react compiler coverage. The earlier bot findings (snoozed threads in the count, hydration flash, per-environment exclusion) were already fixed in the contributor's commits.
