`turnController.recordMessageComplete` and `recordMessageDelta` both
prioritised `payload.rendered` over `payload.text`. `payload.rendered`
is the Rich-Console output `tui_gateway` builds for terminals that
can't render markdown themselves; the TUI already renders markdown via
`<Md>`. Two real bugs follow:
1. **Final answer garbled when `display.final_response_markdown: render`
is set** (#16391). Raw ANSI escape sequences pass through into the
React tree and the user sees overlapping coloured text instead of
their answer.
2. **Streaming silently drops content.** Per-delta `rendered` is an
*incremental* Rich fragment. The previous code did
`this.bufRef = rendered ?? this.bufRef + text`, which on every tick
replaced the whole accumulated buffer with the latest mid-sequence
ANSI fragment. Long replies arrived truncated and looked
half-painted — easy to miss as "model is being terse" instead of a
client bug.
Fix:
* `recordMessageComplete` now prefers `payload.text`, falling back to
`payload.rendered` only when the gateway elected not to send any.
* `recordMessageDelta` always accumulates `text`; `rendered` is ignored
on the streaming path entirely (Ink does its own markdown render via
`<Md>` / `streamingMarkdown.tsx`).
Tests:
* `prefers raw text over Rich-rendered ANSI on message.complete` —
the assistant message reflects raw markdown, not ANSI.
* `falls back to payload.rendered when text is missing` — preserves
the legacy "no `text`, only ANSI" path used by some adapters.
* `always accumulates raw text in message.delta and ignores rendered` —
pre-fix code would have made this assertion fail because each delta
overwrote the buffer.
Validation: `npm run type-check` clean, `npm test --run` 392/392 pass.
