Adds a way to include or exclude “thinking” content in the chat response accessible view so screen reader users can align with the sighted experience. The toggle is exposed as a command and persists per profile.

  • Accessible view behavior: gate thinking content rendering on a persisted preference and refresh accessible view content when it changes.
  • Command surface: add a Chat command to toggle thinking inclusion/exclusion.
  • Help text + coverage: document the toggle in accessibility help and extend tests for default/disabled behavior.
const includeThinking = isThinkingContentIncludedInAccessibleView(storageService);
storageService.store(
	CHAT_ACCESSIBLE_VIEW_INCLUDE_THINKING_STORAGE_KEY,
	!includeThinking,
	StorageScope.PROFILE,
	StorageTarget.USER
);

@meganrogge We'll only toggle thinking and we're thinking this is a power feature, no KB needed
