feat(workflows): generate short machine-nature names

[j15z]

Summary

• replace space-themed workflow names with short machine-nature pairs
• weight names toward seven letters, followed by six, with 5,418 curated combinations using familiar, neutral words
• automatically deduplicate generated names within each workflow folder
• depend on the stable .mutate function so folder workflow creation callbacks are not recreated when mutation state changes
• add coverage for weighting, uniqueness, formatting, excluded vocabulary, and deduplication

PR Summary

Low Risk
Cosmetic naming and create-path wiring only; uses existing server-side name uniqueness rather than changing auth or persistence semantics.

Overview
New workflows now get short lowercase names like bolt-ivy instead of long space-themed pairs. Length is weighted toward seven letters (then six, then longer), from a curated machine/nature word list.

Sidebar create (root and in-folder) now passes deduplicate: true so collisions become name (2) instead of failing uniqueness. Tests cover weighting, word lists, and the create/dedup path.

Greptile Summary

Replaces the space-themed workflow-name generator with short lowercase machine-nature pairs.

• Precomputes 7,050 candidates grouped by combined word length.
• Weights selection toward seven-letter pairs.
• Adds tests for weighting, formatting, word lengths, and candidate coverage.

Confidence Score: 4/5

The workflow-name collision behavior should be addressed before merging because an automatically generated duplicate currently prevents workflow creation.

The new generator selects once from a substantially smaller, non-uniform namespace, while creation callers neither retry nor request deduplication, so a collision is returned to the user as a conflict.

Files Needing Attention: apps/sim/stores/workflows/registry/utils.ts

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
apps/sim/stores/workflows/registry/utils.ts	Introduces the weighted machine-nature generator, but its reduced namespace materially increases creation failures from same-folder name collisions.
apps/sim/stores/workflows/registry/utils.test.ts	Thoroughly verifies candidate formatting, length buckets, weighting, and all 7,050 combinations.

Generated-name collisions block creation

When a folder already contains the selected machine-nature name, the generator returns that duplicate without retrying or suffixing it, causing workflow creation to return HTTP 409. The new length-weighted namespace contains only 7,050 names, materially increasing this failure rate over the previous larger Cartesian product.
