refactor(events): remove the turn boundary mirror events
Complete the boundary-mirror removal begun with the step mirrors: drop `agent/turn-start` and `agent/turn-end` from the agent event taxonomy. Turn and step boundaries are now read exclusively off the durable `session/event` feed (`turn/start`/`turn/end`/`step/start`/`step/end`) — there is no `agent/*` mirror for any boundary. - loop.ts: delete both turn emits; `closeTurn` loses its `emit` parameter and its now-unreachable idempotency guard (it is called exactly once per turn, on mutually exclusive normal/catch paths); `failTurn` loses the dead post-close branch that only a throwing turn-end LISTENER could reach. - ui-stdio: render turn boundaries from `session/event`, recovering the short agent label from an `agent/created`→id map (the `turn/start` event carries only the turn number, and the session id is not reliably the agent id). ui-stdio is a disposable test REPL, so this migration retires the sole justification the event-domain-semantics RFC gave for KEEPING the turn mirrors. - Tests: reason/turn-number collectors and the boundary-ordering test now read `session/event`; the throwing-turn-boundary-LISTENER tests are deleted (that code path no longer exists). A new test covers the outer-catch disposed branch via a pre-step listener that disposes-then-throws (the surviving real path). - Docs: promote the "remove agent boundary mirror events" RFC to implemented (amended/narrowed — `agent/steering` is RETAINED, not a boundary mirror); update the event-domain-semantics + turn-enclosure RFCs, architecture.md, the cookbook, the ACP/agent/ui-stdio prose, and regenerate the cordis catalog. `agent/steering` and `agent/stream-chunk` are explicitly out of scope (not durable-boundary mirrors). ACP is unaffected — it already settles from the log's `turn/end` + `agent/status`; snapshot goldens are byte-unchanged.

Turn-end reasons: a turn ends with one `TurnEndReason` — `completed`, `aborted`, `error`, `disposed`, or `max-tokens`. `max-tokens` mirrors the model-call `FinishReason` of the same name (DeepSeek's `length`): a step that hit the output-token ceiling makes the turn end `max-tokens` rather than `completed`, by the rule *any `max-tokens` step in the turn surfaces as `max-tokens`* (a continuation plugin may run further steps after one, but the cut-short fact wins; the `disposed`/`aborted`/`error` outcomes still take precedence). This lets a consumer distinguish a clean stop from a truncated one (the ACP bridge maps it to the `max_tokens` stop reason). `TurnEndReason` is merge-extensible; `refusal` and `max_turn_requests` are the next variants to add when an adapter/loop first emits them.

A failure that happens once the turn is already closed has no in-turn position for a turn-end error reason (the turn already ended). So a rejecting `session/flush` (the post-`turn/end` durability checkpoint) and a throwing `agent/turn-end` listener are reported via `agent/error` + the logger only, NOT as a session event; the turn stays balanced and the persistence backend keeps its buffered events for the next flush.

**Turn-enclosure invariant**: every session event lives inside a turn (between a `turn/start` and its `turn/end`). The loop appends queued `user/message` events *after* `turn/start`, and an idle `agent.inject()` wraps its `context/message` in a one-shot `injection` turn. This makes the turn the single durability/replay boundary: a persistence backend can treat anything after the last `turn/end` as an interrupted-crash tail without risking the loss of legitimately-recorded between-turn context. The `dsh-invariants` plugin enforces it in dev (a message event outside an open turn throws). See [the turn-enclosure invariant](rfc/implemented/architecture/2026-06-15-turn-enclosure-invariant.md).
