Chrome cleanup: menu dedup, implicit cloud label, Context optimization section

Account menu drops Automations (sidebar nav has it) and the OpenWorker Cloud suffix.
Token savings + compaction move from Models to a new Settings - Context optimization tab.
Coworkers page loses its duplicate intro line.
