Fixes #308283

Problem

Long in-progress status descriptions from cloud sessions overflow the session list item's details row, causing visual artifacts ("screen cheese"). The .session-details-row has max-height: 15px but no overflow clipping, so rendered markdown content spills out.

Fix

Add overflow: hidden to .session-details-row so content that exceeds the row's max-height is clipped. The child .session-description already has text-overflow: ellipsis and white-space: nowrap, so text truncates cleanly with an ellipsis.

Add overflow: hidden to .session-details-row so long in-progress
status descriptions from cloud sessions are clipped to the row's
max-height instead of visually overflowing.
