+Speed up session snapshot loading with a direct disk reader and a request timeout safeguard, keeping the previous path as a legacy fallback.

 /**
  * `GET /sessions/{session_id}/snapshot` — IM-style initial sync.
  *
- * Assembles an atomic-at-a-watermark view for client rebuild:
+ * **Reader strategy** (controlled by `KIMI_SNAPSHOT_READER`):
  *
- *   as_of_seq / epoch    ← `IWSBroadcastService.getSnapshotState`
- *   session              ← `ISessionService.get`
- *   messages (asc)       ← `IMessageService.list` (most recent page)
- *   in_flight_turn       ← broadcast's `InFlightTurnTracker`
- *   pending_approvals    ← server `ApprovalService.listPending`
- *   pending_questions    ← server `QuestionService.listPending`
+ *   - `auto` (default) — delegate to `ISnapshotService`, which reads
+ *     `state.json` + `wire.jsonl` directly from disk and bypasses the heavy
+ *     `core.rpc.listSessions`/`resumeSession`/`getContext` chain. Sub-200ms
+ *     warm / sub-1s cold; legacy path was 5s+ p99 under load.
+ *   - `legacy` — fall back to the old `ISessionService.get` + `IMessageService.list`
+ *     assembly with the 3-attempt watermark-stability retry. Pure operator
+ *     escape hatch; no silent per-request fallback.
  *
- * Watermark stability: the durable seq is read before and after assembly;
- * if a durable event landed in between, assembly retries (bounded). Durable
- * events are low-frequency (turn/tool boundaries — deltas are volatile and
- * don't advance seq), so this converges almost immediately. After the
- * retries are exhausted the latest watermark is returned — the client's
- * seq-guard drops any overlap on replay.
+ * **Timeout**: the new path races against a hard `KIMI_SNAPSHOT_TIMEOUT_MS`
+ * ceiling (default 4000ms, well under traefik's 5s cut-off). Timeout returns
+ * 50001 with a structured log line so the gateway never sees a 499.
  *
- * **Error mapping**: `SessionNotFoundError` → 40401; everything else falls
+ * **Error mapping**: `SnapshotNotFoundError` / `SessionNotFoundError` → 40401;
+ * `SnapshotTimeoutError` → 50001 (`snapshot.timeout`); everything else falls
  * through to the global error handler (→ 50001).
