fix(chat): prevent first user message from being swallowed in new conversations

The optimistic message clearing effect cleared too eagerly — any stream
  message (including AI messages from messages-tuple events) triggered the
  clear before the server's human message had arrived via values events.
  For new threads this caused the user's first prompt to disappear permanently.

  Only clear optimistic messages once the server's human message has been
  confirmed to arrive in thread.messages, not just when any message arrives.

  Fixes #2730
