🤖 fix: persist status URL across sessions via localStorage (#822)

Status URLs now persist through page reloads and compactions via
localStorage.

## Changes
- `StreamingMessageAggregator` takes optional `workspaceId` in
constructor
- Saves `lastStatusUrl` to localStorage keyed by workspace when set
- Loads on construction so URL survives history rewrites

Regression introduced in cc64299.
