Description

Describe the bug
When inspecting a started child workflow a link is created to the run. This link has the same namespace as the currently selected instead of using the child workflow.

This results in a 404 and the namespace must be changed manually in the url to navigate to the correct workflow.

To Reproduce

  1. Start a child workflow in a different namespace.
  2. Navigate to the parent workflow in the web ui.
  3. Try to click any link which points to the child workflow in the Workflow tab.
  4. Get a 404 page

Expected behavior
The link should point to the correct namespace

Desktop
Same error in all browsers

Additional context
Using latest version of ui: temporalio/ui:2.13.3

Research direction

Reproduce the issue by starting a child workflow in another namespace, then open the parent workflow's Workflow tab and inspect the child-workflow links. Trace where those links are assembled and verify that the generated URL uses the child workflow's namespace; done means the link opens the child workflow without a 404.
