Auto a7f8c3aa8d feat: add multiple terminal tabs with rename capability
Add support for multiple terminal instances per project with tabbed
navigation in the debug panel. Each terminal maintains its own PTY
session and WebSocket connection.

Backend changes:
- Add terminal metadata storage (id, name, created_at) per project
- Update terminal_manager.py with create, list, rename, delete functions
- Extend WebSocket endpoint to /api/terminal/ws/{project}/{terminal_id}
- Add REST endpoints for terminal CRUD operations
- Implement deferred PTY start with initial resize message

Frontend changes:
- Create TerminalTabs component with neobrutalism styling
- Support double-click rename and right-click context menu
- Fix terminal switching issues with transform-based hiding
- Use isActiveRef to prevent stale closure bugs in connect()
- Add double requestAnimationFrame for reliable activation timing
- Implement proper dimension validation in fitTerminal()

Other updates:
- Add GLM model configuration documentation to README
- Simplify client.py by removing CLI_COMMAND support
- Update chat session services with consistent patterns
