Hermes 0be7ccde4c feat: safe HTML rendering in AI responses + active session gold style + Sprint 16 tests
renderMd() now correctly renders safe inline HTML tags that AI models
emit in their responses:

Pre-pass (ui.js):
  Converts <strong>, <b>, <em>, <i>, <code>, <br> to their markdown
  equivalents (**text**, *text*, `text`, newline) before the pipeline
  runs. Code blocks and backtick spans are stashed first so their content
  is never modified.

inlineMd() helper (ui.js):
  New helper for processing inline formatting inside list items,
  blockquotes, and headings. Previously these used esc() directly, which
  escaped <strong>/<code> tags that had already been converted from HTML
  by the pre-pass — causing them to appear as literal &lt;strong&gt; text
  instead of rendering as bold. inlineMd() applies bold/italic/code
  processing and then escapes only unknown tags.

Safety net (ui.js):
  After the full pipeline, any HTML tags NOT emitted by our own renderer
  (i.e. <img>, <script>, <iframe>, <svg>, <object>, etc.) are escaped
  via esc(). The SAFE_TAGS allowlist covers every tag the pipeline itself
  produces. XSS is fully blocked.

Active session gold style (sessions.js, style.css):
  Active session item now uses gold/amber (#e8a030) instead of blue,
  matching the logo gradient color for better visual hierarchy.
  Project color border-left is skipped when the session is active
  (gold always wins). Session items get border-radius: 0 8px 8px 0
  to complement the left border indicator.

Tests (tests/test_sprint16.py — 74 tests):
  - Static analysis: pre-pass, SAFE_TAGS, SAFE_INLINE, inlineMd present
  - Behavioural: all safe tags render in paragraphs, list items (ul+ol),
    blockquotes, headings (h1/h2/h3)
  - Exact screenshot regression: the 4-item list with <strong> labels
    and <code> values that was showing as literal text
  - XSS: 7 attack vectors blocked (<img>, <script>, <iframe>, <svg>,
    <object>, XSS inside bold, XSS nested inside <strong>)
  - Edge cases: code block protection, double-escaping guards, br tag,
    mixed markdown+HTML, inlineMd called in list/blockquote handlers

Tests: 312 passed, 0 failed.
