VSCode extension: tool input/output panels need word wrap support

Problem

When using the Claude Code VSCode extension, tool input and output panels (e.g., WebSearch results, Agent tool input) display text without word wrapping. Long lines extend beyond the visible area, making the content difficult to read.

Expected behavior

Tool input/output panels should wrap text to fit the panel width, similar to how the editor handles word wrap.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open Claude Code in VSCode
  2. Trigger a tool that produces long lines (e.g., WebSearch, Agent)
  3. Observe that the tool input/output text does not wrap

Additional context

This affects all tool input/output displays, not just a specific tool. A global word wrap setting for these panels (or respecting VSCode's editor.wordWrap setting) would resolve the issue.
