fix: give a restored message its inbox tag back
Restore moved the file back to the inbox folder and left it invisible: the message carried no `inbox` tag, so the Inbox view could not see it, and the user reported restoring a message and losing it. Delete strips `inbox` so a deleted message leaves that view, which makes restoring it the other half of the same change. restoreResolvedMessages() already meant to add the tag back, and the comment above the branch describes exactly this failure, but the comparison deciding it read `origin`, which four lines earlier had been reassigned from the bare folder name to the finished tag. `deleted-from:Inbox` never equals `Inbox` however an account spells its inbox, so the branch was dead and the tag never came back. The destination folder is taken from the move's own key instead, which is what the surrounding code already builds and what the comment says is being compared. The existing test passed against this throughout. It asserted the file moved, the origin tag came off and `deleted` came off, all of which were true; nothing asserted the tag that decides whether the user can see the message afterwards. It does now, and fails against the old comparison. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01P88Q3MCSCSQxKDy7pmXh9F
