feat(cli): show the active mcpctl project in prime-agent's footer

Browse Source 
`/mcpctl` could switch projects but there was no way to see which one was
active without running a command. prime-agent exposes the same status-bar
channel the model name uses (`ctx.ui.setStatus`), so the switcher now
publishes `mcpctl:<project>` there.

Wired to `session_start`, which fires on startup *and* on every reload —
including the reload the switch itself triggers — so the footer tracks
settings.json without extra bookkeeping. Cleared when no project is mounted.

Also fixes `notify(..., 'success')`: the API only accepts info|warning|error.
Not a live bug (prime-agent falls through to the same showStatus path as
'info') but it fails a typecheck of the extension against the real
ExtensionAPI, which is how it was found.

The extension ships as a JSON-escaped string and is never compiled by our
build, so it was typechecked out-of-tree against
@earendil-works/pi-coding-agent's published types.
