Model selection is global, not per-session — causes confusing cross-session model changes

[shaggiizzle]

Describe the bug

When using /model to change the model in one session, it updates the global ~/.copilot/config.json, which causes
all other active sessions to silently switch models. This is unexpected and confusing.

Affected version

Version 0.0.411

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Open Session A (e.g., ee685757...) — model shows claude-sonnet-4.5
2. Open Session B (e.g., 738952fd...) — run /model and select gpt-5-mini
3. Return to Session A — UI now shows gpt-5-mini (high) even though no model change was made in that session
4. No session.model_change event is logged in Session A's events.jsonl, confirming the change originated
   externally

Evidence from session logs:

• Session B (738952fd) has a session.model_change event for gpt-5-mini at 2026-02-18T18:10:20Z
• Session A (ee685757) has no such event — the model changed in the UI without any user action in that session

Expected behavior

Model selection should be per-session. Changing the model in one session should not affect
other active sessions. A global default is fine for new sessions, but running sessions should maintain their own
model selection.

• Store model selection per-session (e.g., in workspace.yaml) and fall back to config.json only when no
  session-level override exists
• Alternatively, at minimum, log a session.model_change event and display a notification when the model changes
  due to an external config update, so the user understands what happened
