feat: do not close unified exec processes across turns (#10799)

With this PR we do not close the unified exec processes (i.e. background
terminals) at the end of a turn unless:
* The user interrupt the turn
* The user decide to clean the processes through `app-server` or
`/clean`

I made sure that `codex exec` correctly kill all the processes

The server requests cancellations for running subprocesses, then emits a `turn/completed` event with `status: "interrupted"`. Rely on the `turn/completed` to know when Codex-side cleanup is done.
### Example: Clean background terminals
Use `thread/backgroundTerminals/clean` to terminate all running background terminals associated with a thread. This method is experimental and requires `capabilities.experimentalApi = true`.
```json
{ "method": "thread/backgroundTerminals/clean", "id": 35, "params": {
"threadId": "thr_123"
} }

### Example: Steer an active turn
Use `turn/steer` to append additional user input to the currently active turn. This does not emit
