fix(story-mode): draw what real sessions did, from review round 1

Three review agents watched real Claude Code workers build small programs
and compared every panel with the transcript. Replaying their transcripts
through the core found, and now fixes:

- A Bash call was classified from its 400-character display clip, so a
  commit or a test run late in a long one-liner vanished (a failing pytest
  run drew as "saves the work"). The intent, the printed files and whether
  a save ships are now read from the whole command.
- A test run that reports failures failed, even when `| tail` hid the exit
  code. With that, the real fix-test-fix-test sequence folds into one loop:
  "Fix and test, 2 rounds. It passes in the end."
- node:test (`# pass 7`), all-failing pytest (`3 failed in 0.1s`) and
  pytest errors are counted.
- A helper started in the background was drawn as finished, with Claude
  Code's internal launch notes as its answer. It now stays running until its
  task notification arrives; the answer, tool count and duration are joined
  back onto it, and the final panel says when helpers are still out.
- The notification turn reported Claude Code's own duration, counted from
  the first prompt (2 min 38 s for a 21 s turn); a turn is capped at its span.
- Logging into scratch (`| tee "$S/dry.txt"`, `> /tmp/x`) counted as an edit;
  redirect targets are read quote-aware, and a here-document's body is data.
- A probe (`pytest --version`) reads as looking around, not running a tool.
- A plan Claude writes as a numbered list (no plan tool, as in current
  Claude Code builds) is drawn as a plan panel; files it cats are file cards.
- A balloon: code spans stay whole, an ellipsis or e.g. does not end the
  sentence, a remark about the check that just ran stays on that check, and
  a loop shows the last word of its rounds.

`GET /api/sessions/:id/story[?turn=<id>]` is what Story Mode reads (the opt-in header button, App Settings → Header buttons → Story Mode, per device, off by default). It draws one turn of a Claude Code session as a comic page. **Experimental:** the payload shape may still change in a minor release; it is not part of the stable `/api/v1` contract yet.
Read-only. The session is resolved like every session route (ownership via `findSessionOrFail`; another user's session is `404`), and the file read is the session's own transcript, never one the request names: the path the Claude hook reported for it, else `<conversation id>.jsonl` under the Claude projects directory. Only the tail of the transcript is read (8 MB), and file contents, original files and images never leave the server.

`GET /api/sessions/:id/story/helpers/:agentId` draws one helper (an Agent call; its `agentId` is on the main page's event as `helper.agentId`) from the helper's own transcript, `<conversation>/subagents/agent-<agentId>.jsonl` beside the session's. `data` is `{ supported: true, helper: { agentId, type?, description?, finished? }, page }`, the same page shape as above, or `page: null` while the helper has written nothing yet. `agentId` must match `[A-Za-z0-9_-]{1,64}` (`400` otherwise).

A helper started in the background (`helper.background`) carries `helper.running: true` until its `<task-notification>` arrives; that notification starts a turn of its own (origin `task`), whose prompt event carries the helper's answer as `output`, and the answer, tool count and duration are joined back onto the helper in the turn that started it. Claude Code times such a turn from the prompt that started the chain; Story Mode caps a turn's `durationMs` at the turn's own span.
