feat(delegation): surface process accounting as top-level process_notes in the sync result; add live stress harness
Stress run with a real orchestrator subagent showed the per-task keys buried in results[] were not relayed upward; the same prose lines now sit at the top of the sync delegate_task result. evals/subagent_process_handoff/ stress_handoff_live.py runs 12 real parent+child scenarios (handoff, orphan, unread, clean read, cap, exited refusal, mixed fan-out, parent controlling the inherited process, sibling theft incl. adversarial, nested orchestrator, 5-way burst) and scores them against runtime accounting, never model prose.

"""Live stress harness for PR #105125 (subagent background-process accounting) with a real orchestrator AND real
|
||||
children on one model. Each scenario: the parent is asked to delegate; the children do things with background
|
||||
processes; we read the runtime's own accounting (handed_off / orphaned / unread_completions) plus what the parent's
|
||||
between-turn drain receives, and score it against the runtime contract. Never trusts model prose for the verdict.
