fix(mobile): deleting a thread clears its unsent draft - #29564
On mobile, if you type a message (or attach images or files) in a thread's composer and then delete that thread, the unsent draft stays behind. Deletion from the Home list, the Archive list and the thread sidebar all go through the same executor in useThreadListActions.ts, and after a successful delete it only refreshed the archive list.
The draft is stored under the deleted thread's environmentId:threadId key in the persisted composer drafts, so its text and any file-backed attachments stay in mobile storage until the whole environment is removed. Nothing else on mobile prunes drafts for deleted threads.
Change
After the server accepts a delete, the executor now calls clearComposerDraft for the thread's key. That existing helper removes the draft, aborts any in-flight draft operations and schedules cleanup of attachment files that are no longer used. This follows web, where useThreadActions.ts clears the composer draft with clearComposerDraftForThread after a successful delete. A denied or failed delete leaves the draft alone, and mobile delete has no undo.
Scope and approval
Very small, focused fix for an obvious bug, so no prior issue: deleting a thread should not leave its draft and attachment files stored forever, and web already does this. The fix is one line plus an import, with one extended test.
Overlap search: no open PR touches mobile delete cleanup. The closest are #26826 (settling an already-deleted thread offers Remove from list, a different path) and #29164 (the web archived-thread delete path). GitHub searches for mobile delete/draft PRs returned nothing.
Verification
Extended the existing "rechecks permission after a retained delete confirmation" case in apps/mobile/src/features/home/useThreadListActions.test.ts. The test's atom registry stub now sends real atoms to a real AtomRegistry, so the test seeds and reads the real composerDraftsAtom. It checks that the draft survives a denied delete and that only the deleted thread's draft is gone after a successful delete. Another thread's draft stays.
Red on main: AssertionError: expected [ 'primary:thread', 'primary:other' ] to deeply equal [ 'primary:other' ] (1 failed, 40 passed).
Green: vp test run src/features/home/useThreadListActions.test.ts passes 41/41.
vp run check:changed: format, lint, knip, typecheck, tests and React compiler all pass.
Not checked: I didn't try this on a device. Attachment file removal goes through the existing clearComposerDraft cleanup and isn't exercised again here.

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Successful mobile thread deletion now also clears that thread’s unsent draft and releases unused attachments. Cleanup remains scoped to the deleted thread, with failed deletions and other thread actions unchanged.

- Line 164: Update the delete handling around clearComposerDraft(key) to record
the key for cleanup when hydration has not succeeded, since the draft may not
yet exist in the current atom. Apply pending deletions after successful
hydration and retain them across failed load attempts; clear each pending
deletion only after its cleanup is applied.

Walkthrough
After a successful thread deletion, the action clears that thread’s composer draft. The test verifies that a retained confirmation cannot delete a thread after permission is revoked and that the draft remains until deletion succeeds.

Summary
Clear drafts after successful deletion apps/mobile/src/features/home/useThreadListActions.ts, apps/mobile/src/features/home/useThreadListActions.test.ts
A successful delete clears the draft for the deleted thread. The test checks that revoked permission prevents deletion and preserves the draft, then verifies that successful deletion clears only that thread’s draft.
A successfully deleted thread can retain its draft and attachments if deletion finishes before drafts load. Resolve that race before merging.

The test checks only the in-memory atom. A delete path that removes the atom entry but does not persist the removal would still pass. The old draft can then return during hydration. Assert the persisted document after flushing the composer-draft write, using the existing persistence mock pattern.

Update the delete test around `confirm` to verify durable draft removal, not
just the in-memory `composerDraftsAtom` state. Flush the composer-draft write
and assert the persisted document no longer contains `"primary:thread"`,
following the existing persistence mock pattern.
