Web side of the Linux custom-chrome fix (LotusGuild/cinny-desktop fix/linux-custom-chrome). On KDE Wayland, turning on Custom window chrome (beta) drew the Lotus titlebar inside KDE's frame, giving two sets of window buttons.

New nativeChromeActiveAtom: what the desktop's set_custom_chrome reports about whether the frame is stripped right now. customChromeShownAtom uses that report, else the setting.
useTauriWindowChrome stores the command's answer. With an older desktop that answers nothing, or on error, it falls back to the setting, which is the previous behaviour.
DesktopChrome (App.tsx) and TitleBar use customChromeShownAtom, so the layout and the titlebar follow the real frame state: never two titlebars, never none.
The setting's description adds: "On Linux (Wayland) it takes effect the next time Lotus Chat starts."

prettier and eslint are clean. Local tsc shows only the 5 pre-existing errors from stale local deps, none in these files.

On Linux / Wayland the desktop can't strip the window frame at runtime,
so turning on custom window chrome drew the Lotus titlebar inside KDE's
frame (two sets of window buttons). The desktop's `set_custom_chrome`
now answers whether the frame is stripped right now; the titlebar and
layout follow that answer (falling back to the setting for older
desktop builds), so there's never two titlebars or none. The setting
says it applies on next start on Linux / Wayland.
