Ben Taylor 471d74bad4 feat(react-ui): report feedback state to onThumbsUp/onThumbsDown (#6531)
Closes #2615.

## Problem

The v1 thumbs callbacks were typed `(message: Message) => void`, so a
consumer
received the message but not *what the click did*. A custom
`AssistantMessage`
that keeps its own toggle state — the case in the issue — had nowhere to
put
that value:

```tsx
onClick={() => {
  setReactionValue((v) => (v === "like" ? null : "like"));
  onThumbsUp?.(message); // 👈 no way to say whether this applied or retracted
}}
```

The only workaround was counting clicks per message.

The built-in path had the matching gap. `Chat.tsx` already tracked
`messageFeedback`, but `handleThumbsUp` unconditionally wrote
`"thumbsUp"`, so
the state was write-only: clicking an active button re-applied the same
value
and there was no way to un-vote.

These callbacks are live API — `RenderMessage` forwards `onThumbsUp`,
`onThumbsDown` and `feedback` to whatever component is passed as the
`AssistantMessage` prop, which is exactly the customisation the issue
describes.

## Fix

Add an optional second argument reporting the state the click
transitions to:

```ts
onThumbsUp?: (message: Message, isActive?: boolean) => void;
```

- The built-in `AssistantMessage` derives it from the message's current
`feedback`, so a second click on an active button now reports `false`
and
  **retracts** the feedback rather than re-applying it.
- A custom `AssistantMessage` can pass its own value straight through.
- The parameter is optional and appended, so existing one-argument
handlers
  keep type-checking and keep working unchanged.

`onFeedbackGiven` fires only on the applying click — its signature is
`(messageId, "thumbsUp" | "thumbsDown")` and has no way to express a
retraction, so reporting one would be a lie.

Note this is a small behavioural change to the built-in buttons:
previously a
repeat click was a no-op, now it clears the vote. That is what makes the
reported state meaningful, and it matches the toggle UX in the issue.

The toggle logic lives in a new `./feedback` module. This package's
vitest
project runs `environment: "node"` and only collects `*.test.ts`, so
there is no
component-rendering harness here — extracting the pure functions is what
makes
the behaviour testable at all.

## Testing

`packages/react-ui` — full suite, including the 10 new cases:

```
 ✓ src/components/chat/feedback.test.ts (10 tests) 3ms
 ✓ src/components/chat/Markdown.test.ts (29 tests) 5ms
 ✓ src/components/chat/Markdown.xss.test.ts (13 tests) 182ms
 ✓ src/css/sidebar-full-height.test.ts (4 tests) 2ms

 Test Files  10 passed (10)
      Tests  68 passed (68)
```

Coverage: activation from no feedback, deactivation on the
already-active
button, switching to the opposite button, retraction removing the map
entry
rather than storing a falsy value, other messages left untouched, no
mutation of
the previous map, referential stability when nothing changes, and a
toggle
round-trip.

**Mutation checks** — broke each mechanism and confirmed the tests fail,
so they
are not self-fulfilling:

| Mutation | Result |
| --- | --- |
| `isActivatingClick` → `return true` | `Tests 1 failed \| 9 passed` |
| `applyFeedbackClick` retraction branch → `if (false)` | `Tests 3
failed \| 7 passed` |

Both were reverted and the suite returned to 68 passing.

**Types/build** — `tsc --noEmit` clean, `tsdown` clean, and the widened
signature reaches the published types:

```
$ grep -n "onThumbsUp" dist/index.d.mts
102:  onThumbsUp?: (message: Message, isActive?: boolean) => void;
185:  onThumbsUp?: (message: Message, isActive?: boolean) => void;
272:  onThumbsUp?: (message: Message, isActive?: boolean) => void;
```
