1bf2ef9f5e Release PF (v0.51.445): scope gateway watcher to active profile (#2848) (#4275)
* stage-3629: scope gateway watcher to active profile (profile-keyed registry), rebased onto master

* stage-3629: + stop-race-safe subscribe() (Codex CORE) + regression test

Codex caught a TOCTOU between get_watcher() and subscribe(): a watcher reaped as
subscriber-free during a concurrent profile switch left a late subscriber's queue
without the None sentinel -> SSE loop hangs open (keepalives, no events). Opus
independently found the same race (rated follow-up). subscribe() now checks
_stop_event under _sub_lock after appending and self-enqueues the sentinel.
test_subscribe_after_stop_gets_sentinel_immediately pins it.

* stage-3629: + reconnect gateway SSE to new profile on switch (Codex CORE #2)

Second Codex finding: after a profile switch this tab's _gatewaySSE stayed
subscribed to the PREVIOUS profile's watcher (switchToProfile never restarted it;
the probe reattach is gated on !_gatewaySSE which is false while the old ES is
open). switchToProfile() now calls startGatewaySSE() after S.activeProfile is set
— it closes the old ES + reconnects with the new profile cookie, self-gating on
_showCliSessions.

* Release PF: scope gateway watcher to active profile (#2848)

rodboev's #3629, re-pushed to fix both bounce findings (client SSE reconnect +
singleton→profile-keyed registry). Two Codex CORE races caught + fixed inline:
(1) stop/subscribe sentinel race, (2) tab's own SSE staying on the old profile
after switch. Codex SAFE + Opus SHIP (architecture) + gateway-watcher tests green.

"""Regression tests for issue #3506 — WebUI memory growth and idle CPU.
A user on a large install (615 sessions / 40k messages in state.db) reported the
WebUI Python process climbing from ~100 MB to ~1.5 GB RSS over 3 days and holding
180%+ CPU at idle. Three independent contributors were confirmed in the code:
1. ``api.session_lifecycle._sessions`` grew without bound — keys were inserted
on ``register_agent`` / ``mark_turn_completed`` but never deleted, so every
unique session_id the WebUI ever touched leaked a permanent entry.
2. ``SESSION_AGENT_CACHE_MAX`` / ``SESSIONS_MAX`` were hard-coded with no way
for an operator to tune the dominant RSS lever without editing source.
3. ``GatewayWatcher`` re-ran an expensive per-session ``MAX(messages.timestamp)``
aggregation over an oversampled candidate set every 5s, forever, even when
nothing in the sidebar-visible session set had changed.
These tests pin the fixes for all three:
* ``session_lifecycle.discard_session`` bounds the dict, safely.
* ``config._env_int`` makes the caps env-overridable with safe fallback.
* ``gateway_watcher._cheap_change_fingerprint`` is a sound, cheaper change
signal that the poll loop uses to skip the expensive projection.
