Backport of #21883 to release/17.0

/cc Ella Hathaway (@ellahathaway)

Customer Impact

aspire agent init output can confuse customers about configured plugin sources and installed skill locations. The fix separates remote sources from local skills, shows configured URLs and retained OpenCode version pins, and reports successfully installed Playwright skills and already-current static skills.

Testing

Source PR #21883 passed Aspire.Cli.Tests on Windows, Linux, and macOS, with unit and snapshot coverage for the updated summaries and Playwright installation reporting. Backport CI is still pending.

Risk

Low. Changes are localized to agent-init reporting and tracking successful Playwright skill destinations; they do not change source configuration or package installation behavior.

Regression?

None.

This backport now conflicts with release/17.0, and I think it should be closed rather than resolved.

• On main, Clarify source and skill summaries in aspire agent init #21883's summary wording was later replaced by Unify CLI source onboarding, presentation, and selection #21855 (Unify CLI source onboarding, presentation, and selection). main now uses "Configured sources in {0}" with agent-labeled config paths, and InitCommand_ConfiguredSourceList no longer exists.
• release/17.0 already has that newer behavior through [release/17.0] Backport CLI source and agent setup improvements #22109.
• Resolving the conflicts in favor of release/17.0 (which matches main) leaves this PR with only 4 new .verified.txt snapshots, and those belong to renamed tests that would no longer exist. Merging the PR's side instead would put release/17.0 back on behavior that main has since replaced.

Recommendation: close this PR, since the intended change is already covered on release/17.0.
