We have two ways of loading conversation with a previous history. Fork
conversation and the experimental resume that we had before. In this PR,
I am unifying their code path. The path is getting the history items and
recording them in a brand new conversation. This PR also constraint the
rollout recorder responsibilities to be only recording to the disk and
loading from the disk.
The PR also fixes a current bug when we have two forking in a row:
History 1:
<Environment Context>
UserMessage_1
UserMessage_2
UserMessage_3
**Fork with n = 1 (only remove one element)**
History 2:
<Environment Context>
UserMessage_1
UserMessage_2
<Environment Context>
**Fork with n = 1 (only remove one element)**
History 2:
<Environment Context>
UserMessage_1
UserMessage_2
**<Environment Context>**
This shouldn't happen but because we were appending the `<Environment
Context>` after each spawning and it's considered as _user message_.
Now, we don't add this message if restoring and old conversation.
this dramatically improves time to run `cargo test -p codex-core` (~25x
speedup).
before:
```
cargo test -p codex-core 35.96s user 68.63s system 19% cpu 8:49.80 total
```
after:
```
cargo test -p codex-core 5.51s user 8.16s system 63% cpu 21.407 total
```
both tests measured "hot", i.e. on a 2nd run with no filesystem changes,
to exclude compile times.
approach inspired by [Delete Cargo Integration
Tests](https://matklad.github.io/2021/02/27/delete-cargo-integration-tests.html),
we move all test cases in tests/ into a single suite in order to have a
single binary, as there is significant overhead for each test binary
executed, and because test execution is only parallelized with a single
binary.
