* Derive message DOM ids from the server id, not client_message_id

A message's DOM id was derived from the browser-chosen client_message_id
via a Message#to_key override, so dom_id(message) was
"message_<client_message_id>". Turbo's append de-dups by DOM id, so a room
member who posted a message reusing a victim's client_message_id displaced
the victim's message element in every connected member's live view; editing
the attacker's own message then broadcast onto the victim's presentation id.

Drop the to_key override so every message DOM id and broadcast target derives
from the record's primary key. Two distinct records can no longer share a DOM
id regardless of stored client_message_id, so the collision is impossible with
no data migration and no uniqueness constraint. to_param and the fragment
cache key already used the primary key, so message URLs and per-message cache
entries are unchanged.

The composer's optimistic pending message still uses client_message_id as its
placeholder DOM id, which no longer matches the server broadcast's PK-based id.
Reconcile instead by rendering data-client-message-id on the real message and
having the messages controller drop the matching pending placeholder on
connect. Only client-side placeholders (data-pending-message) are removed, so a
message another member posts reusing the same client_message_id can never
displace a real one through the reconciliation path either.

Also point the boost broadcast target at the PK-based dom_id(message, :boosts)
to match the rebuilt container id.

* Bust cached message fragments rendered with client_message_id DOM ids

The message fragment cache keys on the record and the template digest, and
removing the to_key override changes neither. Fragments cached by an earlier
release would keep their message_<client_message_id> ids, so edit, delete and
boost broadcasts, which now target primary-key ids, would miss those messages
in other members' live views until the cache entry expired.

* Locate messages by record id in the client_message_id collision tests

Assert on data-message-id rather than the new primary-key DOM ids, so the tests
describe the behavior instead of the fix and fail on the vulnerable code for the
real reason. Edit the attacker's message to new text and wait for it to arrive,
so the edit path is exercised rather than passing vacuously. Add a request test
that two messages sharing a client_message_id render as distinct elements.
