Fixes #193. Supersedes #321.

useUIMessages and useThreadMessages now assemble results by order: when a page ends inside an order, they load the rest of it (100 rows at a time) and resolve streams against saved rows per order, so a page boundary no longer drops a prompt or parts or leaves a message pending. No component, schema or API change. The 679-line lockfile diff is jsdom and @testing-library/react for the hook tests.

Why not on the server: #321 extended each page to the order boundary in listMessagesByThreadId. To stay inside transaction limits it capped completion at 1,000 rows, so a longer order still split and still froze, and it had no byte bound, so large tool outputs could hit the read limit instead. Further work on #321 kept adding patches (an 8 MiB budget, then cursor alignment for split pages) and still left orders past the caps broken. In the hooks the boundary order loads in ordinary pages, so there is no cap and server pagination stays plain.

📝 Walkthrough

The React message hooks now accept paginated MessageDoc rows and assemble messages across page boundaries. They resolve saved rows against live, finished, and aborted streams, and fetch additional rows to complete the oldest visible order. Documentation and examples now use listMessages for these hooks. Recent-message pagination also limits reads when completing a boundary order.

Deliberate: streamText keeps one stream for all steps of a call, starting at its first step, so the 250 saved steps belong to the streaming call. The test checks that the prompt loads across pages while that stream is live. Added a comment saying so.
