feat(host): directory-picker capability seam with dialog and browse backends
The web GUI's folder picking was hardwired to one interaction: a native OS chooser compiled into the gateway, unusable for remote deployments and swappable only by editing apiproxy source. Directory picking becomes a three-package capability seam in packages/host: ctx.directoryPicker returns a discriminated capability — dialog (the extracted native chooser; host-display only) or browse (new: one-level listing + child creation over Node stdlib, hidden flags host-stamped, symlinks followed, ancestry crumbs; remote-capable). The gateway injects the seam, advertises the kind via host.describe.directoryPicker, serves host.listDirectory / host.createDirectory under browse, and answers directory-picker-unavailable across kinds. cordis.yml is the swap point; apps/cli keeps dialog mounted, so behavior is unchanged until the in-app browser PR flips the default. The connection fixture serves a deterministic browse tree; WorkspacesService gains the browse calls the browser UI will drive. Decision record: .agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-28-directory-picker-capability-seam.md

`apiproxy` is transport-agnostic by design — it registers no routes; carriers wrap `ctx.apiProxy` themselves. The HTTP carrier route (with its `/api` browser-trust fence) is mounted by [`client/connection`](../client/connection/README.md)'s node half, which is why that package lives in the client group: it owns both ends of the wire.
