Works well! Feels very snappy + glad state is preserved when going forward/back with Cmd + arrow keys

…wizard Drive the wizard's current step from a ?step= search param so browser back/forward moves between steps instead of leaving the wizard. Step transitions push history entries; invalid, skipped, or unreachable steps are clamped to what the wizard state allows and the URL is rewritten with a replace. The ?base= param is the only search param accepted on entry. It is consumed by the page container: resolved against the available bases, held in local state, and removed from the URL before the wizard view mounts. When a base is preselected this way, the wizard starts on the first step after base selection. Also moves toSelectedBaseMeta into wizardState.ts so both the page container and BaseInfraSelectStep can use it, and adds initWizardState and furthestAllowedIndex helpers.

Browser back/forward controls did not work in the template builder wizard. Using browser navigation sent the user out of the wizard entirely instead of moving between steps.
The wizard's current step is now driven by a
?step=search param. Step transitions push history entries so browser back/forward walks the steps. Steps that are invalid, skipped, or unreachable given the wizard state are clamped and the URL is rewritten with a replace, keeping URL and state in sync in both directions.?base=is accepted as the only entry search param and deep-links to a preselected base template (superseding #26808). The page container resolves it against the available bases, holds the wizard behind a loader until it is consumed and removed from the URL, then mounts the wizard starting on the first step after base selection.Closes https://linear.app/codercom/issue/DEVEX-594
