fix: target specific chat in MarkStale instead of broadcasting to all workspace chats (#23883)
## Problem
Subagent chats were receiving git context (branch, remote origin, PR
status) from their parent or sibling chats' git operations. When a git
operation triggers external auth, the workspace agent sends `chat_id`
identifying which chat initiated it — but this was broken at two levels:
1. **Agent side:** `CODER_CHAT_ID` was never injected into process
environments. `chatd` sets `Coder-Chat-Id` HTTP headers and the
agent extracts them for process isolation, but never propagated
`CODER_CHAT_ID` to `cmd.Env`. So `gitaskpass` always sent an empty
`chat_id`.
2. **Server side:** `workspaceAgentsExternalAuth` ignored the `chat_id`
query param. `MarkStale` broadcast git context to **all** chats on
the workspace via `filterChatsByWorkspaceID`.
## Fix
- Inject `CODER_CHAT_ID` into `cmd.Env` in `agentproc` when the chat
ID is known, so `gitaskpass` can read and forward it.
- Read `chat_id` from query params in `workspaceAgentsExternalAuth`
and thread it through `chatGitRef`.
- Refactor `MarkStale` to accept a `MarkStaleParams` struct. When
`ChatID` is provided, target only that specific chat. When empty
(legacy agents, non-chat git operations), fall back to the existing
workspace-wide broadcast.
- Extract `markStaleSingle` helper to deduplicate the upsert+publish
logic.

### Data flow before fix
```
chatd → sets Coder-Chat-Id header on agent conn
agent → extracts chatID, stores on process struct
agent → does NOT set CODER_CHAT_ID in cmd.Env ← gap 1
gitaskpass → reads CODER_CHAT_ID (always empty), sends chat_id=""
server handler → ignores chat_id query param ← gap 2
MarkStale → broadcasts to ALL workspace chats
```
### Data flow after fix
```
chatd → sets Coder-Chat-Id header on agent conn
agent → extracts chatID, stores on process struct
agent → sets CODER_CHAT_ID in cmd.Env
gitaskpass → reads CODER_CHAT_ID, sends chat_id=<uuid>
server handler → reads chat_id, passes to MarkStale
MarkStale → targets only that specific chat
```
