feat(tui): add configurable Kitty keyboard protocol mode

[LIHUA919]

Summary

Add user-configurable Kitty keyboard protocol setting to resolve keybind issues on different terminals. Users can now choose between "auto", "enabled", or "disabled" modes based on their terminal's capabilities.

Problem

From issue #4997, users were experiencing inconsistent keybind behavior across different terminals:

• ctrl+m and similar bindings not working on iTerm2/Kitty
• Doubled key events on older terminals
• No way for users to configure the Kitty keyboard protocol mode

Solution

1. Configuration Schema

Added kitty_keyboard field to TUI configuration in packages/opencode/src/config/config.ts:

• Type: "auto" | "enabled" | "disabled"
• Default: "auto" (maintains current behavior)

2. TUI Integration

Modified packages/opencode/src/cli/cmd/tui/app.tsx to:

• Fetch config from server on TUI startup
• Map configuration value to OpenTUI's useKittyKeyboard option
• Include debug logging and graceful error handling

3. SDK Types

Regenerated SDK types to include new tui.kitty_keyboard field.

Configuration Example

Users can now configure Kitty keyboard mode in their opencode.json:

{
  "tui": {
    "kitty_keyboard": "enabled"
  },
  "keybinds": {
    "model_list": "ctrl+m"  // Now works reliably!
  }
}

Configuration Values

Value	Behavior	Use Case
"auto"	Use {} (best effort)	Default, works on most terminals
"enabled"	Use true	Modern terminals (Kitty, iTerm2, WezTerm)
"disabled"	Use false	Older terminals or when experiencing doubled keys

Testing

• ✅ TypeScript compilation passes
• ✅ Configuration schema validated
• ⚠️ Runtime testing requires manual verification with different terminals
