Remove randomized greetings from TUI session headers (#49395)

## What changed

Remove startup greeting phrases and the shared greeting state from startup drafts, session headers, and the empty-state animation. Raw session headers now consistently include `model:` and `directory:` fields.

## Testing

Update startup and fresh-thread snapshots to omit greetings, and adjust raw-header assertions to check model and directory fields.
