fix(chess): optimistic moves and forfeit UI feedback

- Add localFen/localFenRef in ChessBoard for optimistic piece placement,
  preventing snap-back while awaiting server confirmation
- Sync localFen from server state on each chess.fen update
- Guard GAME_STATE handler in useGameRoom from overwriting a finished
  roomStatus, fixing the race where GAME_ENDED (pub/sub) arrives before
  GAME_STATE (direct ws.send)
- Reset confirmForfeit immediately on forfeit dispatch for instant UI feedback
