Brent Traut dfd03ea01b feat(app-server): filter threads by parent (#26662 )

## Why

Clients that display or coordinate spawned subagents need an
authoritative snapshot of a thread's immediate spawned children when
they connect to app-server or recover after missing live events.
`thread/list` cannot query by parent, so clients must otherwise scan
unrelated threads or reconstruct relationships from rollout history and
transient events.

The direct spawn relationship already exists in persisted
`thread_spawn_edges` state. Review and Guardian threads do not
participate in that lifecycle and are intentionally outside this
filter's scope.

## What changed

This adds an experimental `parentThreadId` filter to `thread/list`.
Parent-filtered requests return direct spawned children from persisted
state while preserving the existing response shape, explicit filters,
sorting, and timestamp-only cursor behavior. The lookup does not read
rollout transcripts or recursively return descendants.

Supersedes #25112 with the narrower `thread/list` filter approach.

## How it works

1. An experimental client passes a valid thread ID as `parentThreadId`.
2. App-server routes the list through the existing thread-store and
state-database boundaries.
3. SQLite selects threads whose IDs have a direct persisted spawn edge
from that parent.
4. Omitted provider and source filters include all values; explicit
filters keep ordinary `thread/list` semantics.
5. Grandchildren, Review threads, and Guardian threads are excluded.

## Verification

State (144 tests), rollout (69 tests), and focused app-server
thread-list (31 tests) suites passed. Scoped Clippy checks and
repository formatting also passed. Coverage includes direct spawned
children, omitted grandchildren, pagination, malformed IDs, mixed source
kinds, explicit filters, and operation without rollout files.

Thread Store

codex-thread-store is the storage boundary for Codex threads. It defines the ThreadStore trait plus local and in-memory implementations. Other storage implementations may live outside this repository.

Responsibilities

ThreadStore::append_items is the raw canonical history append API. It does not infer metadata from item contents.
ThreadStore::update_thread_metadata is the only thread metadata write API. It accepts a single literal metadata patch shape, regardless of whether the caller is applying a user/API mutation or facts derived above the store from appended history.
LiveThread is the preferred API for active session persistence. It owns a per-thread metadata sync helper, applies the rollout persistence policy, appends canonical history, and then sends metadata patches through ThreadStore::update_thread_metadata.
ThreadManager routes metadata mutations for loaded and cold threads through one entrypoint. Loaded threads use their LiveThread; cold threads go directly to the store.
LocalThreadStore persists history through codex-rollout JSONL files and persists queryable metadata through the SQLite state database when available. Local explicit metadata mutations also maintain JSONL/name-index compatibility so reading old or SQLite-less local storage keeps working.
RolloutRecorder is the local JSONL writer. It writes already-canonical items for ThreadStore::append_items; it no longer decides metadata updates for live thread-store appends.
core/session creates or resumes LiveThread handles and does not need to know whether persistence is backed by local files or another store.

Direction

New metadata observation semantics should live above ThreadStore. Stores persist explicit metadata fields, but raw history appends remain history-only.
