doc(web): own the Web/TUI split on an unlisted current model

The TUI still renders the unlisted current model as its own row and marks it
current; Web shows the unset trigger label and asks for a replacement. The
note recorded the Host decision but not that the two surfaces present it
differently, which reads as a missed migration rather than a choice.

Also records why `trigger.selectAria` and `trigger.fallback` hold identical
strings, so a future coalescing cleanup does not merge them.

The Web Host reuses `installAgentLlmTarget` for every created or resumed agent. The provider/model/reasoning target starts from the latest `request/header` when the session has used a model, otherwise from the Host default route. `session.selectModel` changes the session-local mutable target, and prompt assembly captures it with request routing; a switch during a running step therefore applies to the next assembled step. The next consumed target persists through the existing full `request/header` snapshot, while a choice that has not reached a request remains process-local.
The session RPC domain exposes a `session.models` directory and `session.selectModel`. The directory is built dynamically from the LLM registry and grouped by provider; each listed model's exact metadata adds adapter-owned reasoning effort ids, names, descriptions, and optional default. Provider catalogs and exact metadata load concurrently by provider and fail independently, so successful groups remain usable alongside retryable failure records. Catalog membership stays advisory: `session.models.current` is returned independently and can remain routable when absent from every group, but the Host does not synthesize an unlisted row after its provider stops advertising it. Exact resolution decides whether a route and explicit effort are available. Selection uses `resolveCallConfig` to reject unsupported effort ids and materialize an adapter-configured default before updating the target.

Catalog membership stays advisory: `session.models.current` is returned independently and can remain routable when absent from every group, but the Host does not synthesize an unlisted row after its provider stops advertising it. The two surfaces answer that state differently on purpose: the TUI still renders the unlisted current model as its own row and marks it current, while Web shows the unset trigger label and asks for a replacement. Web is the surface where a catalog is edited, so a target the user just deleted should read as a decision to make rather than a selection to keep; the TUI, which only picks from what exists, has no such edit to reconcile. The cost is real and accepted — a Web composer showing the unset label can still send to the routed target — and the divergence is deliberate, not a missed migration. Exact resolution decides whether a route and explicit effort are available. Selection uses `resolveCallConfig` to reject unsupported effort ids and materialize an adapter-configured default before updating the target.
The browser `ModelService` owns one `ModelDirectory` per live session. Its snapshot contains the current complete target, grouped catalog, provider failures, operation error, and `idle`/`loading`/`ready`/`selecting`/`error` state. Mounting primes the trigger label and each menu open refreshes the directory. Directory and selection calls share an operation generation so older responses cannot replace a newer result; connection reset discards the process-local projection before restoring the Host target. Failures retain the previous current target and usable groups.
