Subject: [PATCH] fix: preserve chat input when queueing messages

- Modified ChatView.tsx to not clear input field when queueing messages
- Only clear selected images when queueing, preserving typed text
- Input will be cleared when message is actually sent, not when queued
- Fixes issue where unsent text was wiped when queued messages were sent

Fixes #7861
