[codex] Hide conference room experimental toggle (#8237)

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - Instance experimental settings are where operators opt into unstable
product surfaces before they become defaults.
> - Conference Room Chat is still experimental and is intended to come
back later, but users should not be able to enable it right now.
> - Removing the setting outright would risk losing the surrounding
implementation and stored flag behavior that future work will need.
> - This pull request hides the user-facing opt-in toggle behind a
temporary local gate while leaving Conference Room functionality and
flag plumbing intact.
> - The benefit is that operators can no longer enable the feature from
Instance Experimental Settings, while the team can restore the control
later with a small, explicit change.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Paperclip issue: PAP-11233 — comment out the conference-room
experimental setting _just for now_.

Feature request template:

**Subsystem affected**

ui/ — React + Vite board UI

**Problem or motivation**

Conference Room Chat is still present in the codebase and is expected to
return later, but the Instance Experimental Settings page currently
exposes a user-facing toggle that lets operators enable it. For now,
that opt-in path should be removed without deleting the underlying
feature code, stored flag type, or runtime gates.

**Proposed solution**

Hide the Conference Room Chat experimental setting card from Instance
Experimental Settings behind a temporary local gate set to `false`. Keep
the existing JSX, mutation payload, shared flag type, and downstream
Conference Room behavior intact so the setting can be restored
intentionally later.

**Alternatives considered**

- Delete the Conference Room setting and related flag plumbing: rejected
because the issue explicitly says not to remove Conference Room
functionality.
- Force-reset `enableConferenceRoomChat` at the API/service layer:
rejected because this task is about removing the ability for users to
enable it from settings, not changing existing stored instance state.

**Roadmap alignment**

This is a narrow product-polish and release-control change, not new
roadmap-level core feature work. `ROADMAP.md` was checked; it mentions
CEO Chat as future direction, but this PR only hides a temporary
experimental opt-in for the existing Conference Room surface.

**Additional context**

No GitHub issue exists for PAP-11233. This PR is opened from the
Paperclip internal task at the requester’s direction.

## What Changed

- Added a temporary `SHOW_CONFERENCE_ROOM_EXPERIMENTAL_SETTING = false`
gate around the Conference Room Chat experimental setting card.
- Left the existing Conference Room Chat setting JSX, toggle mutation,
stored flag type, and runtime gates intact.
- Updated the focused settings-page test to assert that the Conference
Room Chat setting and toggle are not rendered, even if the stored flag
is currently enabled.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run ui/src/pages/InstanceExperimentalSettings.test.tsx`
- `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/ui typecheck`
- PR checks are green for `cd2c54fb087541006eac4fd91ab5ac978d85ba5b`,
including `verify`, e2e, build, general tests, serialized server suites,
commitperclip review, Greptile, Socket, Snyk, CodeRabbit, and
security-review.

Screenshots: not included; this change removes a settings-row control
and is covered by the focused DOM test above.

## Risks

Low risk. The change only hides the user-facing opt-in card. Existing
installations with `enableConferenceRoomChat` already set are not
force-reset by this PR, and the underlying Conference Room
implementation remains in place for later re-enabling work.

> For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and
discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

## Model Used

OpenAI Codex coding agent based on GPT-5, with terminal, git, and GitHub
tool use. Context window details were not exposed in the runtime.
