[FEATURE] prefersReducedMotion for VS Code extension

Preflight Checklist

• [x] I have searched existing requests and this feature hasn't been requested yet
• [x] This is a single feature request (not multiple features)

Problem Statement

1. The Claude Code VS Code extension currently shows motion/animation effects in parts of

the UI.

1. Users who enable reduced-motion preferences still experience these effects

(In ~/.claude/settings.json file "prefersReducedMotion": true)

1. This creates accessibility friction for people with vestibular disorders or motion

sensitivity.

Proposed Solution

Add a unified reduced-motion check used across the VS Code extension UI.
