fix(tmux): keep browser keys from switching a tab onto another session (#669)
Squash of PR #669. Browser terminals could be moved onto another session by tmux's prefix keys: Ctrl+B then ), (, s or w switched the tab's tmux client to a different session while the tab kept the original's name. Codeman's tmux socket now keeps only Ctrl+B Ctrl+B (send-prefix) in its prefix table, and codeman tui and scripts/tmux-manager.sh get F1 as their way out instead of Ctrl+B d. Merge-time fixes by the maintainer: on an empty prefix table the unbind-key that fails no longer skips binding send-prefix; a key tmux lists escaped (prefix C-\ shows as C-\\) compares equal, so the reset does not rerun on every create; and reconcileSessions() reduces the table at boot when the socket has live sessions, so sessions that survive an upgrade are covered too.

**Instance isolation / multi-instance attach danger** — data dir (`~/.codeman`) and tmux socket (`tmux -L codeman`) are PROCESS-WIDE and shared by every Codeman on the machine, derived from `CODEMAN_INSTANCE` via `src/config/instance.ts` (`getDataDir()`/`dataPath()`/`DEFAULT_TMUX_SOCKET`). ⚠️ A 2nd instance on the SAME socket **discovers and attaches PTYs to the first instance's live sessions** (`tmux -L codeman attach-session …`), resizing/mutating them — `$HOME` isolation is NOT enough (tmux is system-global). To run two instances, give each a distinct `CODEMAN_INSTANCE` (scopes BOTH dir+socket: `~/.codeman-<name>` + `-L codeman-<name>`), or set `CODEMAN_TMUX_SOCKET` + `CODEMAN_DATA_DIR` individually. **`CODEMAN_INSTANCE` defaults to empty = the production layout (`~/.codeman`, `-L codeman`, port 3000)**, so this branch is safe to ship to master without disturbing existing installs. To run THIS beta alongside prod, launch with `scripts/run-beta.sh` (`CODEMAN_INSTANCE=beta` + `CODEMAN_PORT=5000`) — it never collides with prod's data dir/socket/port. Any new `~/.codeman/...` path MUST go through `dataPath()`, never `join(homedir(), '.codeman', …)`, and any new `tmux -L` caller through `resolveTmuxSocketName()` (same module): it applies the `CODEMAN_TMUX_SOCKET` override only when the name is safe and falls back to `DEFAULT_TMUX_SOCKET` otherwise. `TmuxManager` was the only such caller until `codeman tui` shelled out to tmux from a SECOND process for its degraded-mode listing and its attach handoff; a hardcoded `codeman` there would have pointed a beta instance straight at prod's panes.

### The prefix table on Codeman's socket holds only send-prefix
|
||||
|
||||
**Browser tabs are tmux clients, so tmux's prefix table must not reach `switch-client`** (`src/tmux-prefix-table.ts`, called from `createSession` before `respawn-pane`, and from `reconcileSessions()` at boot whenever the socket lists a pane, so sessions that survived an upgrade are covered). Every keystroke typed into a browser terminal reaches the `tmux attach-session` client behind it, and app.js deliberately lets Ctrl+B through to the terminal (readline, Claude Code's "ctrl+b ctrl+b"). With tmux's stock prefix table, Ctrl+B then `(` `)` `L` `s` `w` moved that client onto ANOTHER session, which the tab then showed and typed into under the original's label; `d` detached it, `$` renamed the session, `:` opened tmux's prompt. So the table is reduced to `<prefix> send-prefix` (the socket's configured prefix, read with `show-options -gv prefix`), once per tmux server in practice: the reset only runs while `list-keys -T prefix` shows anything else. ⚠️ Keep `send-prefix`: Claude Code inside tmux backgrounds a command with "ctrl+b ctrl+b". ⚠️ Never touch the `root` table, and tolerate (and re-bind after a reset) `C-<letter> detach-client`: `codeman tui`'s attach claims F1 and Alt+1..9 in `root` and the held-Ctrl alias `C-d` in `prefix` (`beginAttachHandoff`), and a session created mid-attach must not take that way out away. ⚠️ Key tables are server-wide, so what the TUI binds for its attach applies to browser tabs as well: F1 and `C-d` detach a tab's client, and **`M-1`..`M-9` (`switch-client -t <session>`) move it onto another session**, the very thing this reset exists to stop. The browser keeps a typed Alt+digit out of the terminal (`terminal-ui.js` swallows it for its own tab switching), but Esc followed by a digit within tmux's `escape-time` (500 ms on tmux 3.4) arrives as the same `M-<digit>`. This lasts for the length of the attach, and indefinitely after a TUI that is killed before `restore()` runs. Not fixed here; scoping those bindings to the TUI's own client is the open follow-up. ⚠️ The consequence for every terminal attach: `Ctrl+B d` does not exist on this socket. Anything that attaches a user's terminal claims its own way out for the attach, as `beginAttachHandoff` and `scripts/tmux-manager.sh` (F1 in `root`) do, and never advertises tmux's stock chord. Tests: `test/tmux-prefix-table.test.ts` (real tmux on a private socket, driven through a pty attach client), the wiring in `test/tmux-manager.test.ts`, the script in `test/tmux-manager-script-attach.test.ts`.

### Reverse-proxy base path
|
||||
|
||||
**Reverse-proxy base path** (`--base-url` / `CODEMAN_BASE_URL`, default `/`; `src/config/base-path.ts` is the pure single-source, normalized to `''` for root or `/foo`): lets Codeman be mounted under a sub-path behind a proxy that **forwards the prefix unchanged** (does NOT strip it). Deliberately few choke points, mirrored ingress/egress:
