## Why
First-party async traits should expose their `Send` contracts explicitly
without requiring `async_trait`. This completes the migration pattern
established in #27303 and #27304.
## What changed
- Replaced the remaining first-party `async_trait` traits with native
return-position `impl Future + Send` where statically dispatched and
explicit boxed `Send` futures where object safety is required.
- Kept implementations behavior-preserving, outlining existing async
bodies into inherent methods where that keeps the diff reviewable.
- Removed all direct first-party `async-trait` dependencies and the
workspace dependency declaration.
- Added a cargo-deny policy that permits `async-trait` only through the
remaining transitive wrapper crates.
- Updated `rand` from 0.8.5 to 0.8.6 to resolve RUSTSEC-2026-0097 and
keep the full cargo-deny check passing.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-exec-server`: 216 passed, 2 skipped.
- `just test -p codex-model-provider`: 39 passed.
- `just test -p codex-core` and `just test`: changed tests passed;
remaining failures are environment-sensitive suites unrelated to this
migration.
- `cargo deny check`
- `just fix`
- `just fmt`
- `cargo shear`
- `just bazel-lock-check`
## Why
Thread-scoped config needs a stable boundary between the app/session
owner and the config stack. Instead of having call sites manually copy
thread config fields into individual overrides, this adds the proto and
Rust plumbing needed for a `ThreadConfigLoader` implementation to return
typed sources that can be translated into ordinary config layer entries.
Keeping the remote payload typed also makes precedence easier to reason
about: session-owned thread config maps back to the existing session
config source, while user-owned thread config is represented separately
without introducing a new config-layer source until it has TOML-backed
fields.
## What changed
- Added the `codex.thread_config.v1` protobuf service and generated Rust
module for loading thread config sources.
- Added `RemoteThreadConfigLoader`, which calls the gRPC service, parses
`SessionThreadConfig` / `UserThreadConfig`, and validates provider
fields such as `wire_api`, auth timeout, and absolute auth cwd.
- Added proto generation tooling under
`config/scripts/generate-proto.sh` and
`config/examples/generate-proto.rs`.
- Added `ThreadConfigLoader::load_config_layers`, plus static/no-op
loader helpers, so tests and callers can use the same typed loader
interface while config-layer translation stays centralized.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-config thread_config`
