fix(ui): stop calling setup-draft agents "paused manually" (#19322)

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - The task chat shows a notice when the assigned agent is paused
> - A new agent is stored as `status: "paused"` with `pauseReason:
"setup"` while its setup runs
> - The notice treated every pause reason except budget, import and
system as a manual pause
> - So a user who just created their first agent saw "It was paused
manually." and a "Resume agent" button
> - This pull request shows the real setup state and the correct
recovery action
> - The benefit is that new users do not think that they paused their
agent by mistake

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**
During an onboarding test on a staging cloud workspace, the first agent
showed a "paused manually" warning right after it was created. Work
continued later. The agent activity log shows `agent.identity.created`,
several `agent.updated` events while setup ran, then
`agent.hire_created`. It shows no pause or resume event. The agent was
never paused by an operator. It was a setup draft (`pauseReason:
"setup"`).

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Create a first agent in the onboarding flow.
2. Open the task that is assigned to the agent while the agent setup is
not finished.
3. See "<agent> is paused. New runs will not start until the agent is
resumed. It was paused manually." with a "Resume agent" button.

**Expected behavior**
The notice shows that the agent is still being set up. When the draft
waits for the user, the notice links to the agent page to finish setup.
A real pause keeps a clear "Resume agent" action.

## What Changed

- `IssueAssigneePausedNotice` now handles `pauseReason: "setup"`
separately. It shows "<agent> is still being set up." with an info tone.
- While the lifecycle state is `preparing`, `verifying` or `pausing`,
the notice says that runs start automatically when setup finishes. It
shows no action.
- When the setup draft is parked (`lifecycleState: "paused"`), the
notice shows a "Finish setup" link to the agent page, where the existing
"Finish setup" button lives.
- The notice never offers "Resume agent" for a setup draft.
- `company_archived` pauses now say "It was paused because its company
is archived." They offer no resume, because restoring the company
resumes these agents.
- Only `pauseReason: "manual"` says "It was paused manually." An unknown
or null reason shows no reason sentence.
- Added tests for the setup-draft states and the company-archive pause.

## Verification

Red, on current `master` code with the new tests (`cd ui && npx vitest
run src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx -t
IssueAssigneePausedNotice`):

```
     × shows a setup-draft agent (preparing) as still being set up, not manually paused 35ms
     × shows a setup-draft agent (paused) as still being set up, not manually paused 11ms
     × explains a company-archive pause instead of calling it manual 12ms
AssertionError: expected 'CEO is paused.New runs will not start…' not to contain 'paused manually'
      Tests  3 failed | 5 passed | 100 skipped (108)
```

Green, same command after the fix:

```
      Tests  8 passed | 100 skipped (108)
```

Neighbouring suites (`npx vitest run
src/components/IssueChatThread.test.tsx
src/components/TaskChatThread.test.tsx`):

```
 Test Files  2 passed (2)
      Tests  471 passed | 1 skipped (472)
```

- `node scripts/check-token-gates.mjs`: all gates clean.
- `tsc --noEmit -p ui`: no errors in the changed files. The local run
shows errors only from unbuilt workspace packages
(`@paperclipai/plugin-sdk/ui` dist and the generated storybook feature
map). CI builds these packages.
- I did not run the full `pnpm -r typecheck` / `pnpm test:run` / `pnpm
build`. CI runs them.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change is UI-only and limited to one notice component.
- A null or unknown pause reason no longer says "manually". It still
says that the agent is paused and still offers "Resume agent".

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`), Anthropic, via Claude Code with
tool use (shell, file edits, browser inspection of the staging
workspace).
