Benjamin Lu 9209badd37 feat: add KSampler live previews to assets sidebar jobs (#8723)
## Summary
Show live KSampler previews on active job cards/list items in the Assets
sidebar, while preserving existing fallback behavior.

## Changes
- **What**:
- Added a prompt-scoped job preview store (`jobPreviewStore`) gated by
`Comfy.Execution.PreviewMethod`.
- Wired `b_preview_with_metadata` handling to map previews by
`promptId`.
- Extended queue job view model with `livePreviewUrl` and consumed it in
both sidebar list and grid active job UIs.
  - Cleared prompt previews on execution reset.
- Added ref-counted shared blob URL lifecycle utility (`objectUrlUtil`)
and updated preview stores to retain/release shared URLs so each preview
event creates one object URL.
- Added/updated unit coverage in `useJobList.test.ts` for preview
enable/disable mapping.

## Review Focus
- Object URL lifecycle correctness across node previews and job previews
(retain/release behavior).
- Preview gating behavior when `Comfy.Execution.PreviewMethod` is
`none`.
- Active job UI fallback behavior (`livePreviewUrl` -> `iconImageUrl`).
