## Why
Selected execution environments are thread-scoped resources, but startup
and turn construction repeatedly resolved their IDs and working
directories. That discarded existing environment handles and shell
metadata even when a selection had not changed.
Session configuration updates also need to affect future turns without
changing the resolved environment set already captured by a running
turn.
## What changed
- Create a `ThreadEnvironments` service inside `Codex` from the spawned
`EnvironmentManager` and raw environment selections, then store it on
`SessionServices`.
- Split service construction from `update_selections`, allowing session
configuration updates to mutate the resolved set in place.
- Retain an existing `TurnEnvironment` when its environment ID and
working directory match; resolve only added or changed selections and
remove selections that are no longer present.
- Normalize duplicate IDs by keeping the first selection and skip
individual selections that fail to resolve instead of rejecting the
entire update.
- Give each `TurnContext` a cloned `TurnEnvironmentSnapshot`, so later
session configuration updates affect future turns without rewriting an
active turn.
- Reuse the service-owned environment manager and resolved snapshot for
startup work, MCP initialization, and child-thread spawning instead of
flowing resolved environments through spawn arguments.

- `just test -p codex-core environment_selection`
- `just test -p codex-core turn_environments`
- `just test -p codex-core
