Disconnect after a configuration port change can leave the original tunnel open.

The saved target now keeps port: null (tunnel.ts:1873). A later disconnect resolves the alias's current port and builds the connection key from it (tunnel.ts:1888-1894). targetConnectionKey includes the port (command.ts:73-75). The tunnel was registered under the port resolved at connect time (tunnel.ts:1836, 1702). If the configured port changes first, the disconnect lookup at tunnel.ts:1898 misses that entry. The disconnect then skips closing it. The remote stop still runs against the new port (tunnel.ts:1911-1915).

The previous saved port matched the connect-time key, so this sequence did not fail before this change. The new test disconnects before it changes configPort (tunnel.test.ts:505-508), so it does not cover this case.

Resolve the connection identity for disconnect so it finds the entry registered at connect time. Add a test that changes the configured port between ensureEnvironment and disconnectEnvironment, then asserts that the original tunnel closes.

Review comment at @packages/ssh/src/tunnel.ts at line 1873:
Update the disconnect lookup in ensureEnvironment and disconnectEnvironment so it identifies the tunnel using the connection identity registered at connect time, even if the alias’s configured port changes; preserve the existing null-port behavior where required. Add a test that changes configPort after ensureEnvironment and before disconnectEnvironment, and verifies that the original tunnel closes.
