Add chat-first workspace roadmap

Document the post-3.1 milestones needed to make the stable workspace product feel natural in chat-driven LLM interfaces.

Add a follow-on roadmap for model-native file ops, workspace naming and discovery, tool profiles, shell output cleanup, and use-case recipes with smoke coverage. Link it from the README, vision doc, and completed workspace GA roadmap so the next phase is explicit.

Keep the sequence anchored to the workspace-first vision and continue to treat disk tools as secondary rather than the main chat-facing surface.

# `3.5.0` Chat-Friendly Shell Output
Status: Planned
## Goal
Keep persistent PTY shells powerful, but make their output clean enough to feed
directly back into a chat model.
## Public API Changes
Planned additions:
- `pyro workspace shell read ... --plain`
- `pyro workspace shell read ... --wait-for-idle-ms N`
- matching Python SDK parameters:
- `plain=True`
- `wait_for_idle_ms=...`
- matching MCP request fields on `shell_read`
## Implementation Boundaries
- keep raw PTY reads available for advanced clients
- plain mode should strip terminal control sequences and normalize line endings
- idle waiting should batch the next useful chunk of output without turning the
shell into a separate job scheduler
- keep cursor-based reads so polling clients stay deterministic
## Non-Goals
- no replacement of the PTY shell with a fake line-based shell
- no automatic command synthesis inside shell reads
- no shell-only workflow that replaces `workspace exec`, services, or file ops
## Acceptance Scenarios
- a chat agent can open a shell, write a command, and read back plain text
output without ANSI noise
- long-running interactive setup or debugging flows are readable in chat
- shell output is useful as model input without extra client-side cleanup
## Required Repo Updates
- help text that makes raw versus plain shell reads explicit
- examples that show a clean interactive shell loop
- smoke coverage for at least one shell-driven debugging scenario
