When users typed a message at a choice prompt and selected a follow-up suggestion, their typed message was being cleared and lost. This fix preserves the user's input value after sending the follow-up choice message, ensuring the text area retains what the user typed. Fixes #7316

- Use inputValueRef to capture current input value instead of including it in the dependency array - This prevents unnecessary re-creation of the handleSuggestionClickInRow callback on every keystroke - Maintains the same functionality while improving performance

Description
This PR fixes an issue where user messages were disappearing when selecting follow-up choices at choice prompts.
Problem
When users typed a message at a choice prompt and then selected a follow-up suggestion, their typed message was being cleared and lost. The message was not visible in the chat history and was not available in the up-key message history.
Solution
The fix preserves the user's input value in the text area after sending the follow-up choice message. This ensures that what the user typed remains visible and accessible.
Changes
