Add a Get started link to the hosted app empty state

[shawnpatel]

Summary

• Adds a "New here? Get started" link to the placeholder shown in the hosted app when no folder or file is open, pointing to https://github.com/almond-bot/harness-studio
• Only shown in hosted mode (no local dev server), styled to match the existing hint text

Test plan

• Open the hosted app with nothing open and verify the Get started link appears below the Open file/Open folder buttons and opens the repo in a new tab
• Verify the link does not appear when running against the local CLI server

Missing server checked guard

Low Severity

The Get started block renders whenever server.connected is false, but the app starts with connected: false and checked: false until /api/files finishes. That window is not hosted mode, yet the link can appear while the local CLI server is still being detected, which conflicts with showing it only in hosted mode.
