feat: separate default and additional Coder Agents system prompts (#23616)

Admins can now control whether the built-in Coder Agents default system
prompt is prepended to their custom instructions, rather than having the
custom prompt silently replace the default.

**Changes:**
- New `include_default_system_prompt` boolean toggle (defaults to `true`
for existing deployments) stored as a site config key — no migration
needed.
- GET `/api/experimental/chats/config/system-prompt` returns the toggle
state, the custom prompt, and a preview of the built-in default.
- PUT persists both the toggle and custom prompt atomically in a single
transaction.
- `resolvedChatSystemPrompt()` composes `[default?, custom?]` joined by
`\n\n`, falling back to the built-in default on DB errors.
- Settings UI adds a Switch toggle with conditional helper text and a
"Preview" button that shows the built-in default prompt via the existing
`TextPreviewDialog`.
- Comprehensive test coverage: 15 subtests covering toggle behavior,
prompt composition matrix, auth boundaries, and integration with chat
creation.
