fix(tui_gateway): strip ANSI from slash-worker output for desktop chat

Desktop chat bubbles render plain text, but a worker-routed command that
builds its own Rich Console (e.g. /journey) picks up truecolor from the
gateway's inherited COLORTERM and leaks raw escapes into the bubble. Strip
ANSI at the single worker-return choke point so every command renders cleanly.
The TUI opens /journey as an overlay, so it never travels this path.
