Desktop chat logs cannot be recovered after being archived. After moving the project folder, the location on OpenCode cannot be changed, and the address is not updated when the project is reopened.

Describe the bug

Desktop chat logs become unrecoverable after archiving. After moving the entire project folder to a new location, OpenCode still references the old absolute path and cannot update the session/log location. Reopening the project does not refresh the address automatically.

Steps to reproduce

Create a project at /old/path/project
Use OpenCode desktop, have some chat sessions
Archive or move the project folder to /new/path/project
Reopen the project in OpenCode
Try to access previous chat logs / sessions

Expected behavior

OpenCode should either:

Detect that the project folder has moved, and update session/log paths accordingly, or
Provide a manual "relink sessions" dialog (as requested in [FEATURE]: Add session migration dialog to recover orphaned or misplaced sessions #23249), or
Store paths relative to the project root or use an ID-based mapping ([FEATURE]: Auto-relink stale sessions when project_id matches but directory is outdated #27822)

Actual behavior

Sessions are orphaned, logs cannot be recovered. The old absolute path is still used and cannot be changed.
