feat(e2e): stabilize Playwright chat tests for desktop + mobile

Adds comprehensive Playwright E2E coverage for the unified chat stack:

- Desktop ChatTab (canvas node → side-panel chat)
- MobileChat (direct /?m=chat&a=<id> navigation)

Fixtures:
- chat-seed.ts: external workspace creation with psql bypass for loopback
  URLs, heartbeat keeper, platform_inbound_secret pre-seed, and DB cleanup
- echo-runtime.ts: minimal A2A JSON-RPC server with workspace-side
  /internal/chat/uploads/ingest endpoint for file-attachment round-trips

Tests (12/12 passing):
- panel load, send/receive echo, history persistence
- file attachment round-trip (desktop + mobile)
- composer auto-grow (mobile)
- markdown rendering: code blocks and tables (desktop)
- activity log visibility (desktop)

Also adds missing data-testid attributes:
- chat-panel (ChatTab, MobileChat)
- workspace-card (mobile AgentCard)
- mobile-chat-cta (MobileDetail open-chat button)

CI:
- .gitea/workflows/e2e-chat.yml already present; now validated locally

+
+# Comprehensive Playwright E2E for the unified chat stack (desktop
+# ChatTab + mobile MobileChat). Runs on every PR that touches canvas,
+# workspace-server, or this workflow file.
+#
+# Architecture:
+#   1. Ephemeral Postgres + Redis (docker, unique container names)
+#   2. workspace-server built from source, started with
+#      MOLECULE_ENV=development (fail-open auth)
+#   3. canvas dev server (npm run dev) on :3000
+#   4. Playwright tests create workspaces via API, point them at an
+#      in-process echo runtime, and exercise the full send/receive
+#      round-trip through the browser.
+#
+# Parallel-safety: same pattern as e2e-api.yml — per-run container names
+# and ephemeral host ports so concurrent jobs on the host-network runner
+# don't collide.

-"""Unit tests for OpenClaw adapter env-var key selection and provider URL routing.
+"""Unit tests for resolve_provider_routing in adapter_base.
 
-The key-selection and URL-routing logic lives inline in OpenClawAdapter.setup()
-(adapter.py lines 84-92).  Since setup() carries heavy subprocess dependencies,
-these tests isolate the selection logic by reproducing the exact Python expressions
-from the adapter source — if the adapter's logic changes, these tests must be kept
-in sync.
-
-Organisation:
-  TestEnvKeyChain          — priority order of the 3 currently supported keys
-  TestProviderUrlMapping   — model-prefix → provider URL dict correctness
-  TestNegativeAndFallback  — no keys set / unsupported keys
-  xfail stubs              — AISTUDIO + QIANFAN documented as not-yet-implemented
+Covers provider routing, URL-override precedence, and the missing-key error path.
+Each adapter defines its own registry; this test file defines one inline that
+mirrors what the openclaw adapter uses.
