Description
### Feature summary
Add separate notification controls for top-level sessions and their child sessions.
### What problem are you trying to solve?
I often use one main session to start several child sessions. Each child that finishes or asks a question can create its own notification.
With many sessions running, the notifications become constant and important notifications from the main session are easy to miss.
### Proposed solution
Add a notification scope, either globally or for each parent session:
- All sessions
- Top-level sessions only
- Muted
When “Top-level sessions only” is selected, child-session status should remain visible in the app, but individual child sessions should not produce separate OS notifications.
If a child needs input that the parent session cannot handle, the parent could surface that question to the user.
### Workflow impact
This would make parallel orchestration quieter and easier to manage without hiding child-session progress or important questions.
### Installation context
GitHub Copilot app 1.0.23 on Windows x64, OS build 26200.8655, using a main session with multiple child sessions.
### Additional context
Related: #1898 requests separate sound controls for automations, and #248 requests parent-child session organization. Neither covers notification control for child sessions.
This is separate from #1042, which concerns automatic focus switching.

No files, tests, or entry points are named in the issue, so first map the app's notification handling and parent-child session model. Clarify whether scope is global or per parent session, then verify that top-level notifications remain visible, child progress stays in the app, and muted mode suppresses OS notifications.
