fix: always toggle unified Model Library tab from sidebar button

The model-library toggle command redirected to Comfy.BrowseModelAssets
whenever the UseAssetAPI setting was on. On cloud that command toggles
the same tab anyway; on local builds it opened the legacy asset-browser
overlay, making the new tab unreachable for anyone who had enabled the
asset API experiment. Drop the redirect so the button always toggles
the tab.
