[automated] Update test expectations

After the promotion-store-to-real-link migration, promoteWidget materialises
a real link from the SUBGRAPH_INPUT sentinel into the interior widget's input
slot. The renderer's pre-existing 'linked → disabled' rule then unintentionally
fires on every promoted widget, marking the interior textarea disabled+readonly
so it cannot be edited from inside the subgraph definition.

Treat links whose origin is SUBGRAPH_INPUT_ID as internal plumbing rather
than external connections in buildSlotMetadata. This restores the editability
of promoted interior widgets when navigating into a subgraph definition while
preserving the linked semantic for actual upstream connections.

-### Ref-Counting for O(1) Queries
-
-The store maintains a parallel ref-count map. When a widget is promoted on a SubgraphNode, the ref count for that entry key increments. When demoted, it decrements. This enables:
-
-```ts
-isPromotedByAny(graphId, { sourceNodeId, sourceWidgetName }): boolean
-// O(1) lookup: refCounts.get(key) > 0
-```
-
-Without ref counting, this query would require scanning all SubgraphNodes in the graph.
-
-### View Reconciliation Layer
-
-`PromotedWidgetViewManager` (`src/lib/litegraph/src/subgraph/PromotedWidgetViewManager.ts`) sits between the store and the UI:
-
-```mermaid
-graph LR
-    PS["PromotionStore
-(data)"] -->|"entries"| VM["PromotedWidgetViewManager
-(reconciliation)"] -->|"stable views"| PV["PromotedWidgetView
-(proxy widget)"]
-    PV -->|"resolveDeepest()"| CW["Concrete Widget
-(leaf node)"]
-    PV -->|"reads value"| WVS["WidgetValueStore"]
-```
-
-The manager maintains a `viewCache` to preserve object identity across updates — a reconciliation pattern similar to React's virtual DOM diffing.
+`PromotedWidgetViewManager`
+(`src/lib/litegraph/src/subgraph/PromotedWidgetViewManager.ts`) now reconciles
+synthetic widget views derived from linked subgraph inputs. It does not sit on
+top of a promotion registry.
