feat(ux): group model list by provider in /gsd prefs wizard (#993)

* feat(ux): group model list by provider in /gsd prefs wizard

The model selection in configureModels() was a single flat alphabetical
list that became unwieldy with many providers. This groups models under
provider headers (e.g. "─── anthropic (24) ───") so users can quickly
scan to the right provider section.

Changes:
- ExtensionSelectorComponent: add SEPARATOR_PREFIX convention for
  non-selectable group headers. Navigation skips separators, Enter
  ignores them, and they render with borderAccent styling.
- configureModels: build grouped option list with provider headers
  instead of flat map.
- New test: extension-selector-separator.test.ts (6 tests).

* fix(ci): use node:test instead of vitest in extension-selector test

tsconfig.extensions.json does not include vitest type declarations,
causing TS2307 in CI. Rewrite test to use node:test + node:assert
to match the convention used by other extension tests.

* fix(ci): rewrite separator test to avoid TS parameter property issue

The extension-selector component transitively imports countdown-timer.ts
which uses TypeScript parameter properties (private tui: TUI). Node's
--experimental-strip-types cannot handle these, causing ERR_UNSUPPORTED_
TYPESCRIPT_SYNTAX in CI.

Rewrite the test to verify the separator detection logic and model
grouping contract without importing the component. Duplicates the
isSeparator/nextSelectable helpers and tests them directly.
