Fixes #42002

The async normalization callback was passed directly to Array.filter, so every Promise was treated as truthy and parent messages were not removed. Normalize first, then filter the resolved results.

Tests: targeted Jest test in Docker, 3 passed.

Walkthrough

normalizeMessages now processes messages sequentially and preserves normalized thread context. Jest tests cover parent resolution, reply context, and empty input. The livechat package now includes Jest configuration and a testunit script.

Changes

Livechat message normalization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Normalize messages sequentially
packages/livechat/src/lib/threads.ts
normalizeMessages awaits each message in order and adds non-null results. Replies can resolve parents that appear earlier in the same batch.
Validate normalization and enable Jest tests
packages/livechat/src/lib/threads.spec.ts, packages/livechat/jest.config.ts, packages/livechat/package.json
Tests cover parent removal, reply context, same-batch parent resolution, and empty input. Jest uses the server preset and is exposed through the testunit script.

In `@packages/livechat/src/lib/threads.ts`:
- Line 80: Update the message normalization flow around normalizeMessage and
normalizeThreadMessage to resolve thread parents from the batch-local
parentMessages collection populated by addParentMessage, in addition to the
existing store state lookup. Ensure replies whose parent appears earlier in the
same input normalize without destructuring an undefined parent, and add a
regression test using empty mockState.messages with a parent and reply in one
call that asserts Livechat.message is not called.

Addressed in 245d548: jest: ~30.2.0 added to packages/livechat/package.json devDependencies (matching the other workspace packages) and the lockfile updated.
