Extensions: add pi.sendUserMessage() for sending user messages

Adds sendUserMessage() to the extension API, allowing extensions to send
actual user messages (role: user) rather than custom messages. Unlike
sendMessage(), this always triggers a turn and behaves as if the user
typed the message.

- Add SendUserMessageHandler type and sendUserMessage() to ExtensionAPI
- Wire handler through loader, runner, and all modes
- Implement via prompt() with expandPromptTemplates: false
- Add send-user-message.ts example with /ask, /steer, /followup commands
- Document in extensions.md

fixes #483

Add agent state methods to CustomToolContext and fix abort signature

CustomToolContext now has:
- isIdle() - check if agent is streaming
- hasQueuedMessages() - check if user has queued messages
- abort() - abort current operation (fire-and-forget)

Changed abort() signature from Promise<void> to void in both
HookContext and CustomToolContext. The abort is fire-and-forget:
it calls session.abort() without awaiting, so the abort signal
is set immediately while waitForIdle() runs in the background.

Fixes #388

refactor(hooks): split session events into individual typed events

Major changes:
- Replace monolithic SessionEvent with reason discriminator with individual
  event types: session_start, session_before_switch, session_switch,
  session_before_new, session_new, session_before_branch, session_branch,
  session_before_compact, session_compact, session_shutdown
- Each event has dedicated result type (SessionBeforeSwitchResult, etc.)
- HookHandler type now allows bare return statements (void in return type)
- HookAPI.on() has proper overloads for each event with correct typing

Additional fixes:
- AgentSession now always subscribes to agent in constructor (was only
  subscribing when external subscribe() called, breaking internal handlers)
- Standardize on undefined over null throughout codebase
- HookUIContext methods return undefined instead of null
- SessionManager methods return undefined instead of null
- Simplify hook exports to 'export type * from types.js'
- Add detailed JSDoc for skipConversationRestore vs cancel
- Fix createBranchedSession to rebuild index in persist mode
- newSession() now returns the session file path

Updated all example hooks, tests, and emission sites to use new event types.

Move exec to HookAPI, sessionManager/modelRegistry to HookEventContext

Breaking changes:
- HookEventContext now has sessionManager and modelRegistry (moved from SessionEventBase)
- HookAPI now has exec() method (moved from HookEventContext/HookCommandContext)

- Session events no longer include sessionManager/modelRegistry fields

Hook code migration:
- event.sessionManager -> ctx.sessionManager
- event.modelRegistry -> ctx.modelRegistry
- ctx.exec() -> pi.exec()

Updated:
- src/core/hooks/types.ts - type changes
- src/core/hooks/runner.ts - constructor, createContext
- src/core/hooks/loader.ts - add exec to HookAPI
- src/core/sdk.ts - pass sessionManager/modelRegistry to HookRunner
- src/core/agent-session.ts - remove sessionManager/modelRegistry from events
- src/modes/* - remove setSessionFile calls, update events
- examples/hooks/* - update to new API

Hook API: replace send() with sendMessage(), add appendEntry() and registerCommand()

Breaking changes to Hook API:
- pi.send(text, attachments?) replaced with pi.sendMessage(message, triggerTurn?)
  - Creates CustomMessageEntry instead of user messages
  - Properly handles queuing during streaming via agent loop
  - Supports optional turn triggering when idle
- New pi.appendEntry(customType, data?) for hook state persistence
- New pi.registerCommand(name, options) for custom slash commands
- Handler types renamed: SendHandler -> SendMessageHandler, new AppendEntryHandler

Implementation:
- AgentSession.sendHookMessage() handles all three cases:
  - Streaming: queues message with _hookData marker, agent loop processes it
  - Not streaming + triggerTurn: appends to state/session, calls agent.continue()
  - Not streaming + no trigger: appends to state/session only
- message_end handler routes based on _hookData presence to correct persistence
- HookRunner gains getRegisteredCommands() and getCommand() methods

New types: HookMessage<T>, RegisteredCommand, CommandContext

Refactor SessionEventBase to pass sessionManager and modelRegistry

Breaking changes to hook types:
- SessionEventBase now passes sessionManager and modelRegistry directly
- before_compact: passes preparation, previousCompactions (newest first)
- before_switch: has targetSessionFile; switch: has previousSessionFile
- Removed resolveApiKey (use modelRegistry.getApiKey())
- getSessionFile() returns string | undefined for in-memory sessions

Updated:
- All session event emissions in agent-session.ts
- Hook examples (custom-compaction.ts, auto-commit-on-exit.ts, confirm-destructive.ts)
- Tests (compaction-hooks.test.ts, compaction-hooks-example.test.ts)
- export-html.ts guards for in-memory sessions

Refactor subagent tool, fix custom tool discovery, fix JSON mode stdout flush

Breaking changes:
- Custom tools now require index.ts entry point in subdirectory
  (e.g., tools/mytool/index.ts instead of tools/mytool.ts)

Subagent tool improvements:
- Refactored to use Message[] from ai package instead of custom types
- Extracted agent discovery to separate agents.ts module
- Added parallel mode streaming (shows progress from all tasks)
- Added turn count to usage stats footer
- Removed redundant Query section from scout output

Fixes:
- JSON mode stdout flush: Fixed race condition where pi --mode json
  could exit before all output was written, causing consumers to
  miss final events

Also:
- Added signal/timeout support to pi.exec() for custom tools and hooks
- Renamed pi-pods bin to avoid conflict with pi

Custom tools with session lifecycle, examples for hooks and tools

- Custom tools: TypeScript modules that extend pi with new tools
  - Custom TUI rendering via renderCall/renderResult
  - User interaction via pi.ui (select, confirm, input, notify)
  - Session lifecycle via onSession callback for state reconstruction
  - Examples: todo.ts, question.ts, hello.ts

- Hook examples: permission-gate, git-checkpoint, protected-paths

- Session lifecycle centralized in AgentSession
  - Works across all modes (interactive, print, RPC)
  - Unified session event for hooks (replaces session_start/session_switch)

- Box component added to pi-tui

- Examples bundled in npm and binary releases

Fixes #190

Add hooks system with pi.send() for external message injection

- Hook discovery from ~/.pi/agent/hooks/, .pi/hooks/, --hook flag
- Events: session_start, session_switch, agent_start/end, turn_start/end, tool_call, tool_result, branch
- tool_call can block execution, tool_result can modify results
- pi.send(text, attachments?) to inject messages from external sources
- UI primitives: ctx.ui.select/confirm/input/notify
- Context: ctx.exec(), ctx.cwd, ctx.sessionFile, ctx.hasUI
- Docs shipped with npm package and binary builds
- System prompt references docs folder
