@copilot fix the failing test https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/actions/runs/25299517367/job/74163935534?pr=314022

Fixed in commit 11482cb. Updated 7 tests in copilotCliModels.spec.ts to explicitly set CLIAutoModelEnabled=true where they test behavior with the auto model enabled, and updated AGENTS.md to reflect the new forkSessions.enabled default of false.
