teknium1 339fa6d918 fix(gateway): bounded redacted result preview on tool.completed run events
Slims the salvaged preview helper (drop the try/except around json.dumps —
default=str cannot raise on tool results) and documents the tool.completed
SSE shape. Adds the control test that the multimodal envelope dict is still
classified as a success, so the dict passthrough only widens the failure
detection to real structured results.

The idea of carrying the tool result on tool.completed for /v1/runs
consumers was first proposed in #22362; that PR's executor half
(result=function_result) is already on main, and its wire half is landed
here in redacted, bounded form instead of the raw payload.

Salvages #111821 (@KoNit-K), part of #111815.

"""Tests for _detect_tool_failure + _trim_error + get_cute_tool_message
inline failure suffix rendering.
Covers the user-visible promise: when a tool fails, the CLI shows a short,
specific reason in square brackets at the end of the completion line —
not a generic "[error]".
