fix(chat.js): SyntaxError on line 145 — 'Here\\'s' broke string parsing

The 'variant' action message used 'Here\\'s a variant.' inside a
single-quoted JS string. \\' becomes literal \ + ' which closes the
string mid-word, then 's a variant.' is unparseable. Result was a
"missing ) after argument list" SyntaxError at load on /studio (chat.js
is included site-wide), which blocked nothing visible but threw on
every page load. Fixed by switching to double-quoted string for that
literal.
