fix(subagent): keep output past an empty terminal message with one selection rule

A max-tokens step that assembled only tool-call blocks appends an
EMPTY-content assistant/message (the usage host). Three consumers each
hand-rolled output selection and all let it erase the child's real
answer: the in-process readResult and the Activation subagent/end
capture took the last message unfiltered, and the SDK backend let any
message beat its streamed-text fallback; the in-process driver also had
no streamed-text fallback for cancelled turns.

dsh-subagent now owns the canonical rule in src/assistant-output.ts
(last non-empty assistant message, else the accumulated text-delta
stream) and all three consumers apply it. Regression tests in all three
packages fail under the previous selections.

Closes #1514

`provider.start(request): Promise<SubagentRun>` is the ownership-transfer boundary; the delegation tool also uses it inside its one-shot Task-backed background path. Before fulfillment, the provider owns setup and must cancel, roll back, and quiesce unpublished resources on every failure. After fulfillment, the caller owns the run and must call `dispose()` on every path; remaining prompt and turn work belongs to `SubagentRun.result`.
`SubagentRun.result` resolves to `{ output, structured?, stopReason }`. Child-level failures resolve with a non-`completed` reason; only an infrastructure fault that the seam cannot represent may reject. `dispose()` is idempotent, cancels remaining work, and waits for both result settlement and child-resource quiescence. A result rejection remains on `result`; `dispose()` rejects only for an independent resource-release failure.

A result rejection remains on `result`; `dispose()` rejects only for an independent resource-release failure. `output` and the `subagent/end` edge's `lastAssistantMessage` share one selection rule, implemented by the exported `finalAssistantOutput` helper: the child's last non-empty assistant message, else the text it streamed before the turn was cut short ([`SubagentResult.output`](../../../docs/subsystems/subagent.md#the-terminal-result-subagentresult) owns the contract).
A local run publishes an ordinary child agent/session before `start()` fulfills, returns that shared session id as `SubagentRun.id`, exposes the exact child as `SubagentRun.localAgent`, records `request.parent.session.id` in the child's `parentSession` header, and appends the resolved descriptor inside its initial turn. Remote providers instead mint a parent-scoped lifecycle id and return `localAgent: undefined`; without a local child session, their one-shot runs are not part of trace-backed enumeration.
