Add forward/back navigation while previewing backtrack targets in the transcript overlay.
When preview (backtracking) is active:
Up or Esc → move to the next older user message
Down → move to the next newer user message
Enter → confirm and fork (unchanged)
Up/Down continue to have same behavior when preview is not active

hi @nornagon-openai,
sorry i don't know what to do or who to tag in order to get opinion on this change.

I would really love if we can merge this feature if it is ok with the vision
