fix: /reasoning command output ordering, display, and inline think extraction

Three issues with the /reasoning command:

1. Output interleaving: The command echo used print() while feedback
   used _cprint(), causing them to render out-of-order under
   prompt_toolkit's patch_stdout. Changed echo to use _cprint() so
   all output renders through the same path in correct order.

2. Reasoning display not working: /reasoning show toggled a flag
   but reasoning never appeared for models that embed thinking in
   inline <think> blocks rather than structured API fields. Added
   fallback extraction in _build_assistant_message to capture
   <think> block content as reasoning when no structured reasoning
   fields (reasoning, reasoning_content, reasoning_details) are
   present. This feeds into both the reasoning callback (during
   tool loops) and the post-response reasoning box display.

3. Feedback clarity: Added checkmarks to confirm actions, persisted
   show/hide to config (was session-only before), and aligned the
   status display for readability.

Tests: 7 new tests for inline think block extraction (41 total).
