fix(tmux): locate the REPL input box by shape, not by a Claude-only glyph
ci/woodpecker/pr/ci Pipeline failed

send-message.sh confirmed delivery by grepping the captured pane for a
prompt glyph (`❯`, a leading `>`, or `│ >`). Those are Claude Code shapes.
pi draws its input box as two horizontal `─` rules with the input between
them and no glyph anywhere, so on a pi pane the grep matched nothing, the
`delivered` and `draft` branches were unreachable, and every send exited 2
with "may be UNDELIVERED" after burning all its retries — on messages that
had in fact been delivered.

Measured on five live seats: pi seats vision, tess and medic returned 0
glyph matches on non-empty captures (3653 / 1086 / 1890 bytes); Claude
seats fred and tuesday returned 3 and 1.

This is a different arm from #1257. On the measured host
`tmux capture-pane -t <session> -p` and `-t <session>:0.0 -p` both return
the same 3653 bytes, so #1257's empty-capture mechanism does not reproduce
here; fixing only that would leave every pi send at rc=2 and would verify
green against a Claude pane.

The probe becomes locate_input_box(), which returns a status code instead
of a string. Found-but-empty is a real answer (an empty input box is what
a submitted message leaves behind) and is now distinguishable from
not-found, which the old `[ -z "$promptline" ]` test conflated. Box
detection anchors on the LAST pair of `─` rules: agent output can contain
its own rules, but nothing is drawn below the input box except the status
line.

Adding a runtime means adding its shape in that one function. A missing
shape does not degrade gracefully — it turns every send to that runtime
into a false "may be UNDELIVERED", which is exactly what this fixes.

Tests: two fixtures added to test-send-message-verdict.sh driving a
glyphless box-drawn REPL, one that submits (expect exit 0 delivered) and
one that holds the text in the box (expect exit 2 draft). Patched suite
PASS=5 FAIL=0. Control against the pristine origin/next send-message.sh:
PASS=3 FAIL=2, fixture 4 failing as `rc=2 ... REPL input prompt not
locatable after 3 attempts — message may be UNDELIVERED`, which is the
defect reproduced in a test. Sibling suites unchanged and green:
test-send-message-socket.sh rc=0, agent-send.test.sh PASS=19 FAIL=0.

Note the suite is in test-enumeration-exclusions.txt (the CI image ships
no tmux), so these fixtures are verified locally only. That exclusion and
its #1017 burndown reason are unchanged by this commit.

Not addressed here: auto-submit-drafts.sh lines 20 and 26 carry the same
Claude-only `❯` assumption. Separate surface, separate change.

Closes #1362
