Eddie Chen cfc946f4e1 Expose and persist turn lineage across the app server (#51415 )

## Why

Clients starting delegated work need to attribute descendant turns to the original turn and retain that attribution through completion and history reads.

## What changed

- Accept optional `parentTurnId` and `rootTurnId` in `turn/start`, and expose `rootTurnId` on returned turns and lifecycle notifications.
- Default new turns to their own root when none is supplied. Preserve the active turn's root when steering, ignoring incoming lineage fields.
- Carry root IDs through completion, interruption, recovery, and fork boundaries, and persist them for paginated history reads. Leave unknown roots null in older history.
- Update protocol schemas and generated TypeScript and Python bindings.

## Testing

Extend coverage for default and explicit roots, steering without changing lineage, interrupted and recovered turns, history reads after restart in both history modes, nested fork pagination, and compatibility with older database writers.

Thread Store

codex-thread-store is the storage boundary for Codex threads. It defines the ThreadStore trait plus local and in-memory implementations. Other storage implementations may live outside this repository.

Responsibilities

ThreadStore::append_items is the raw canonical history append API. It does not infer metadata from item contents.
ThreadStore::update_thread_metadata is the only thread metadata write API. It accepts a single literal metadata patch shape, regardless of whether the caller is applying a user/API mutation or facts derived above the store from appended history.
LiveThread is the preferred API for active session persistence. It owns a per-thread metadata sync helper, applies the rollout persistence policy, appends canonical history, and then sends metadata patches through ThreadStore::update_thread_metadata.
ThreadManager routes metadata mutations for loaded and cold threads through one entrypoint. Loaded threads use their LiveThread; cold threads go directly to the store.
LocalThreadStore persists history through codex-rollout JSONL files and persists queryable metadata through the SQLite state database when available. Local explicit metadata mutations also maintain JSONL/name-index compatibility so reading old or SQLite-less local storage keeps working.
RolloutRecorder is the local JSONL writer. It writes already-canonical items for ThreadStore::append_items; it no longer decides metadata updates for live thread-store appends.
core/session creates or resumes LiveThread handles and does not need to know whether persistence is backed by local files or another store.

Direction

New metadata observation semantics should live above ThreadStore. Stores persist explicit metadata fields, but raw history appends remain history-only.
