fix: Livechat popout not syncing department and custom fields

[aleksandernsilva]

Proposed changes (including videos or screenshots)

Google’s privacy changes (specifically storage partitioning) have affected how localStorage works across iframes and child windows. As a result, Livechat's popout mode lost access to shared state and became less reactive.

This PR is the first step toward restoring reactivity in popout mode. It initializes the popout window with the token, iframe data, and custom fields queue.

Future work will expand this logic to cover the rest of the Livechat internal state to fully restore reactivity to the popout mode.

CTZ-156 CTZ-204

Steps to test or reproduce

⚠️ To be able to properly test this you must embed Livechat in a different origin.

• Embed Livechat in a different origin
• set custom field, department and/or theme data

window.RocketChat(function() {
   this.setTheme({ color: 'rebeccapurple' });
   this.setDepartment('departmentid');
   this.setCustomField('customfield', 'value')
})

• Click "Expand chat" in the Livechat widget header
• New window should open (popout) with the information pre-loaded
