Tianyi Cui b0bc0b5792 feat(agent-loop): turn-enclosure invariant + post-turn error model
Every session event now lives inside a turn (between turn/start and its
turn/end). The loop records queued user/message events AFTER turn/start;
an idle agent.inject() wraps its context/message in a one-shot injection
turn. This makes the turn the single durability/replay boundary so a
persistence backend can treat anything after the last turn/end as a
crash tail without dropping legitimate between-turn context.

A failure once the turn is already closed (rejecting session/flush, a
throwing agent/turn-end listener) has no in-turn position for a session
error event, so it is reported via agent/error + logger only; the turn
stays balanced. failTurn appends an error event only while the turn is
open.

The dsh-invariants plugin enforces turn-enclosure via a default case:
every non-boundary event type — including plugin-added merge-extensible
keys — must sit inside an open turn or it throws.

Documented in ADR 0017 + architecture.md.

/**
* Dev-mode invariants: a pure-listener plugin that asserts the harness event
* contract at runtime, and (optionally) freezes logged session-event data so
* any code that mutates history throws instead of corrupting silently.
*
* Everything is a plugin — this is just listeners on `session/created`,
* `session/event`, and `agent/status`. It is **off in production**: enable it
* in tests and the demos, where a contract violation should be a loud failure,
* not a subtle one. It doubles as executable documentation of the event
* taxonomy: the assertions below ARE the contract.
*
* Why runtime assertions instead of compile-time deep-readonly types? See
* ADR 0012. Briefly: a `DeepReadonly<SessionEvent>` is high type-noise across
* every log consumer and a plugin casts straight through it; a dev-mode freeze
* + assertions catch real corruption at zero production cost and zero type
* noise. The always-on half of that defense (cloning derived messages) lives
* in dsh-session; this package is the dev-mode tripwire.
*
* @module @deepseek-ai/dsh-invariants
