Promote AI suggestion button to primary position in review comment threads

This PR changes the code-review comment-thread button layout so the AI suggestion action (`costrict.askReviewSuggestionWithAI`) is the primary action (`navigation@1`), replacing the prior accept action (`costrict.acceptIssue`) and removing the duplicated third-slot action entry.

What is Different

Before

Scattered source updates, isolated context, and manual follow-up across multiple feeds.

Now

Introduced a user-visible UI interaction change that makes AI review suggestions the first-class action in code-review comment threads, so reviewers can access AI-assisted fixes more directly during review without searching through lower-priority actions.

Why Track This

Why It Matters

Reviewers using the Costrict VS Code extension will immediately see the AI suggestion option as the top action in comment threads, reducing steps to trigger AI help and speeding review interactions; watch whether any teams with existing accept-button habits encounter missed or mis-clicked actions after this reorder. The implementation sets `costrict.askReviewSuggestionWithAI` to the primary navigation slot and removes the duplicated third action, so rollout should be monitored for UI workflow expectations and any workflow shortcuts that assumed the old accept placement.
