Preserve the instance PATH.

Line 75 overwrites input.environment.PATH with a path built from process.env. If the instance environment contains the directory for config.cli, catalog discovery, snapshot checks, and turns cannot resolve the CLI. Merge input.environment.PATH with augmentedPath() instead of replacing it.

In `@server/drivers/codex.ts` around lines 71 - 76, Update childEnv so
input.environment.PATH is preserved and merged with augmentedPath() rather than
overwritten by the process-based path; ensure the resulting PATH retains
instance-provided directories needed by CLI resolution while still including
augmentedPath().
