Structured output on the subagent seam: schema subset, capture runtime, spawn/fork support
Carved out of #170 per review feedback — the foundation the workflow tool builds on, now standing alone on master: - dsh-tools: the structured-output JSON Schema subset (StructuredOutputSchema, assertSupportedOutputSchema, validateStructuredValue) — rejects loud outside the enforced subset, listing every violation - dsh-subagent: SubagentStartRequest.outputSchema / SubagentResult.structured become a real capability; the service rejects a schema'd request whose provider lacks it - dsh-subagent-inprocess: the shared structured runtime — one global structured_output capture tool, a prepend final-assembly listener that strips the placeholder for plain agents and swaps in the run's own schema (plus the calling instruction as a trailing section) for structured children, an agent/turn-continuation veto once captured, and the capture/nudge loop in the run driver (structuredNudgeRetries, cancellation honored mid-nudge); lifetime refcounted by backends and live runs - subagent-spawn / subagent-fork flip outputSchema: true One deliberate divergence from the #170 revision: the backends do NOT add 'tools' to their plugin inject. Doing so deferred their apply past the todo plugin, and the delegation tool mirrors provider lifecycle — so the model-visible tool order of every existing prompt changed, invalidating every recorded snapshot fixture. The runtime now gates its capture-tool registration on tools availability itself (sync when live, a scoped inject fiber when the Loader starts the backend first), keeping this PR byte-invisible to existing transcripts: all 35 snapshot scenarios pass against master's fixtures unchanged.

### Structured-output schema subset
|
||||
|
||||
A separate vocabulary for callers that DEMAND a machine-readable value from an agent — the subagent seam's `SubagentStartRequest.outputSchema` (and, by extension, a workflow's `agent({ schema })`). Unlike `SchemaSpec` (the author-facing DSL for tool parameters), a `StructuredOutputSchema` is an object-rooted **raw JSON Schema subset** as data: it travels verbatim to the model as a forced tool's `parameters`, and the produced value is validated against it.
|
||||
|
||||
The subset is deliberately narrow and REJECTS LOUD outside it — accepting a keyword the validator doesn't enforce would validate less than the schema promises (accepted-then-ignored). Supported: single-string `type` (`object`/`array`/`string`/`number`/`integer`/`boolean`/`null`; type arrays rejected), `properties`/`required`/`additionalProperties` (boolean; every `required` key must be declared), `items`, scalar-only `enum`/`const`; annotations (`description`/`title`/`default`/`examples`) are ignored but must still be JSON data. `assertSupportedOutputSchema(schema)` throws `OutputSchemaError` (`code: 'UNSUPPORTED_SCHEMA'`, listing every violation) for anything else; `validateStructuredValue(schema, value)` returns path-qualified violations (empty = valid, total — never throws).

### Tool-owned UI presentation
|
||||
|
||||
A tool owns how ITS calls render in a UI (an editor's tool-call card, a CLI log line) — a UI plugin must NOT special-case tool names. A `ToolDefinition` may declare two optional, pure, display-only methods that return a **`card`-tagged render intent** (a discriminated union — a tool declares its card kind once and a UI bridge switches on `card`):
