code-mode: introduce durable session interface (#24180)

## Summary

Introduce a `CodeModeSession` interface for executing and managing
code-mode cells.

This moves cell lifecycle, callback delegation, termination, and
shutdown behind a session abstraction, while continuing to use the
existing in-process implementation, and the ability to implement an
external process one behind this interface.

A Codex session owns one `CodeModeSession`, which in turn owns its
running cells and stored code-mode state. Each cell is represented to
the caller as a `StartedCell`, exposing its cell ID and initial
response.

It also introduces a `CodeModeSessionDelegate` callback interface. A
session uses the delegate to invoke nested host tools and emit
notifications while a cell is running, allowing the runtime to
communicate with its owning Codex session without depending directly on
core turn handling.
