chore: Update Reflex to v0.8.18

Summary

Updated Reflex framework from version 0.8.16 to 0.8.17. This is a minor version bump that includes several improvements and bugfixes from the Reflex team.

Key changes in Reflex 0.8.17 (release notes):

• Added context for lock expiry messages (pass event name)
• Exposed sourcemap generation via VITE_SOURCEMAP environment variable
• Exposed experimental HMR via VITE_EXPERIMENTAL_HMR environment variable
• Improved error boundary styling
• Added more auto_reload_on_error patterns
• Fixed window events inside memoization leaf
• Fixed rx.Field initialization in mixin states
• Fixed frontend exception handling to trigger auto reload
• Fixed background event updates

Changes made:

• Updated pyproject.toml to specify reflex>=0.8.17
• Updated uv.lock with resolved dependencies

Review & Testing Checklist for Human

This is a YELLOW risk change (dependency update without local testing):

• Run the application locally - Execute uv run reflex run and verify the app starts without errors
• Test core functionality - Verify the AI chat assistant, YAML editor, and all tabs (Requirements, Progress, Code, Save/Publish) work correctly
• Consider version pinning - Decide if >=0.8.17 (allows future updates) is appropriate or if it should be pinned to exactly ==0.8.17 for stability

Notes

• Important: This PR was NOT tested locally before creation. The application should be run and tested before merging.
• The version constraint uses >=0.8.17 which will allow automatic updates to newer Reflex versions. Consider if this aligns with the project's stability requirements.
• All lint checks passed with uv run ruff check .
• Reflex 0.8.17 is a minor update with mostly bugfixes and developer experience improvements, so breaking changes are unlikely but possible.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Chores
  • Raised the minimum required version of a core dependency (reflex) to ensure compatibility with recent fixes and features (now reflex >= 0.8.18). This helps prevent runtime issues and keeps the project aligned with upstream improvements.

Devin, I think there's a newer version just released. Can you rebase from main and bump to the latest?
