Add Wails v3 desktop application with native Go integration

[vanpelt]

This PR adds native desktop application support using Wails v3, providing a high-performance alternative to the web interface with direct access to Go backend services.

Changes

Replaced initial Tauri implementation with Wails v3 for better integration with our existing Go codebase. The desktop app is built directly into the container module at container/cmd/desktop/, wrapping core services (Claude, Git, Session, Settings) to expose 20+ methods through auto-generated TypeScript bindings. The React frontend remains unchanged, with a new API wrapper (src/lib/wails-api.ts) that automatically detects the environment and routes calls through Wails methods in desktop mode or HTTP in development.

Benefits

This implementation eliminates HTTP overhead by using direct method calls, improves security by removing exposed ports, and maintains full backward compatibility. The desktop app provides the same React SPA experience with native performance, while the development workflow supports hot reload for both Go and React code through the new pnpm desktop commands.
