Subject: [PATCH] test(agent): loosen brittle error/final_response equality to
 substring

result['error'] and result['final_response'] are independently settable
keys that only coincidentally share _COMPRESSION_TIMEOUT_FINAL_RESPONSE
today; assert the actionable substring instead so a benign prefix or
rewording does not break the terminal-contract test.
