codex-rs: Rename /clear to /new, make it start an entirely new chat (#1264)

I noticed that `/clear` wasn't fully clearing chat history; it would
clear the chat history widgets _in the UI_, but the LLM still had access
to information from previous messages.

This PR renames `/clear` to `/new` for clarity as per Michael's
suggestion, resetting `app_state` to a fresh `ChatWidget`.
