refactor(app): port command, notification, highlights, home, file-view and workspace-tip stores to plain codecs

Session import keeps validating against the shared Effect schema through a dynamic import, so the shared schema and Effect load only when a file is imported. Persisted notification errors are checked structurally instead of through the shared schema. composer/schema.ts carries Effect twins of the file selection shapes until it is ported.
