Subject: [PATCH] fix(gateway): also neutralize untrusted Matrix room name in
 prompt

Widen #5961's _format_untrusted_prompt_value coverage to the Matrix
room display name (**Matrix Room:**), a sibling attacker-controllable
field the original fix missed. chat_name is user-settable, so an
injected room name could render as literal markdown in the system
prompt. Adds a regression test.
