Closes #52132.

*This PR previously also fixes the "expanded message editor not taking
up full height" part, but #52545 has already fixed that. Yet it seems to
leave a new issue (that was previously not revealed) behind, as
follows.*

This PR fixes the `Full + ExcludeOverscrollMargin` editor mode (which
the agent panel message editor uses in expanded mode), which could
jitter while typing because render-time layout and scroll-position
updates were clamping against different effective
`scroll_beyond_last_line` policies. This PR fixes that inconsistency so
the expanded editor stays stable while typing, and adds a regression
test covering `ExcludeOverscrollMargin` scroll clamping.

Release Notes:

- Fixed the expanded Agent Panel message editor so it no longer jitters
while typing.
