feat: vision in the agentic chat path (image content block)

handle_chat_agentic now reads body image + image_media_type and, when present, sends the current
user turn as an Anthropic content-block array [{text},{image}] instead of a plain string — so the
model sees raw pixels alongside memory, history, and tools (parity with the CLI). Additive: no image
=> output byte-identical to before. elc-clean. Pairs with neuron-ui fix/chat-vision-attachments.
