fix: improve message block spacing and layout
Comprehensive improvements to message block spacing and alignment: Layout improvements: - Use parent container gap: 1 for consistent spacing between all blocks - Remove all conditional margin logic from tool groups and text blocks - Remove paddingBottom from tool-call-item titles - Changes AI message metadata alignment from flex-start to flex-end - Reorders credit display to show credits before completion time Code quality: - Add hasTextContent() helper function for cleaner type checking - Change text content to always use .trim() instead of trimTrailingNewlines - Skip rendering empty text blocks to prevent phantom spacing Result: Consistent single-line spacing between all message blocks during both streaming and completed states, with improved visual alignment. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
