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.

## Settle-exactly-once
A `session/prompt` resolves (or rejects) exactly once, keyed off the canonical session log (the `session/event` stream), NOT the `agent/turn-start`/`agent/turn-end` events. One listener captures the prompt's owning turn from the log's `turn/start` and settles on the matching `turn/end` — the one signal that always fires (`closeTurn` appends it unconditionally, even when a boundary emit throws and the `agent/turn-end` EVENT is skipped). A prompt settles only on ITS OWN turn (`inflight.turn === turn/end.turn`), so a stale `turn/end` for a previously-cancelled turn whose end arrives late can never settle the wrong prompt. A turn that ends `error` REJECTS the RPC with an internal error carrying the failure message (ACP has no error stop reason); every other reason resolves via the codec. As a fallback, when the agent settles to `idle`/`disposed` with a prompt still pending — e.g. a `session/event` listener registered before the bridge threw and starved the bridge's listener — an `agent/status` handler reconciles the prompt from the log (the owning turn's `turn/end`, or `cancelled` if the turn was torn down without one). An empty/whitespace prompt is rejected up front — it would queue no work, so no turn would start and the RPC would hang.
