fix: CLI/UX batch — ChatConsole errors, curses scroll, skin-aware banner, git state banner (#5974)

* fix(cli): route error messages through ChatConsole inside patch_stdout

Cherry-pick of PR #5798 by @icn5381.

Replace self.console.print() with ChatConsole().print() for 11 error/status
messages reachable during the interactive session. Inside patch_stdout,
self.console (plain Rich Console) writes raw ANSI escapes that StdoutProxy
mangles into garbled text. ChatConsole uses prompt_toolkit's native
print_formatted_text which renders correctly.

Same class of bug as #2262 — that fix covered agent output but missed
these error paths in _ensure_runtime_credentials, _init_agent, quick
commands, skill loading, and plan mode.

* fix(model-picker): add scrolling viewport to curses provider menu

Cherry-pick of PR #5790 by @Lempkey. Fixes #5755.

_curses_prompt_choice rendered items starting unconditionally from index 0
with no scroll offset. The 'More providers' submenu has 13 entries. On
terminals shorter than ~16 rows, items past the fold were never drawn.
When UP-arrow wrapped cursor from 0 to the last item (Cancel, index 12),
the highlight rendered off-screen — appearing as if only Cancel existed.

Adds scroll_offset tracking that adjusts each frame to keep the cursor
inside the visible window.

* feat(cli): skin-aware compact banner + git state in startup banner

Combined salvage of PR #5922 by @ASRagab and PR #5877 by @xinbenlv.

Compact banner changes (from #5922):
- Read active skin colors and branding instead of hardcoding gold/NOUS HERMES
- Default skin preserves backward-compatible legacy branding
- Non-default skins use their own agent_name and colors

Git state in banner (from #5877):
- New format_banner_version_label() shows upstream/local git hashes
- Full banner title now includes git state (upstream hash, carried commits)
- Compact banner line2 shows the version label with git state
- Widen compact banner max width from 64 to 88 to fit version info

Both the full Rich banner and compact fallback are now skin-aware
and show git state.
