feat: agent session protocol — sessionId in result, continue support, frontmatter retry

Breaking changes:
- AgentRunResult now requires sessionId field
- AgentOptions now requires continue function
- Agent CLI outputs JSON {stepHash, sessionId} instead of plain CAS hash
- Engine parses JSON output (with legacy CAS hash fallback)

New features:
- Frontmatter validation retry: if agent output lacks valid frontmatter,
  engine calls agent.continue() up to 2 times with correction message
- Session tracking: sessionId flows from agent → engine → StepOutput
- Hermes agent: session parse failure is now a hard error (no raw text fallback)
- Hermes agent: supports --resume for continue sessions

Closes #384
