fix(dashboard): robust tool call display and filter logic

Two fixes for tool call display in the dashboard:

1. **filterDisplayMessages includes tool_calls** (MessageBubble.js)
   Previously filtered out messages with only tool_calls (no content/thinking).
   Now correctly keeps messages that have tool_calls.

2. **Type-safe getToolSummary** (markdown.js)
   The heuristic tool summary extractor was calling .slice() without
   type checks. If a tool input had a non-string value (e.g., number),
   it would throw TypeError. Now uses a helper function to safely
   check types before calling string methods.
