fix(qa): require inherited child context evidence (#134708)

Reject forked-context passes built from parent prose or spawn planning alone. Correlate the accepted child with its raw inherited-history provider request, then verify source-bound completion and the canonical parent result across the existing mock-openai OpenClaw/Codex runtime pair.

Keep product history acquisition and other subagent QA work separate. Refs #134692.

coverage:
primary:
- agent-runtime.subagent-turns-subagents
objective: Verify the agent can choose forked subagent context when the child needs the current transcript.
objective: Verify a native child executes with inherited requester history, not merely that the parent requests a fork.
successCriteria:
- Agent launches a native subagent with context=fork.
- Subagent uses the forked requester transcript to recover the visible code.
- Subagent request remains bounded and does not switch to ACP.
- User-visible output includes the delegated result and the visible code.
- Agent launches a bounded native subagent with context=fork and no visible code in its task.
- The mock provider observes the child task and inherited parent user turn in the same request.
- User-visible output contains the completed child's result, not a parent echo or spawn receipt.
