Remove cached transcripts for deleted channel tasks.

When a delete response removes an inactive task, this branch retains messages and hasMore for that task's thread. Clear state for thread IDs that exist in previous.tasks but not in room.tasks. Clear the stream for each removed thread too.

Proposed fix 
 let previous = rooms[index]
+if let oldTasks = previous.tasks, let newTasks = room.tasks {
+    let retainedThreads = Set(newTasks.map(\.threadId))
+    for threadId in oldTasks.map(\.threadId) where !retainedThreads.contains(threadId) {
+        messages.removeValue(forKey: threadId)
+        hasMore.removeValue(forKey: threadId)
+        clearStream(threadId)
+    }

room merge logic around the messages replacement branch to detect thread IDs
present in previous.tasks but absent from room.tasks, then remove each deleted
thread from messages and hasMore and clear its stream. Preserve the existing
replacement and active-transcript behavior for threads that remain.
