[codex] Return TurnResult from Python turn handles (#23151)

## Why

`TurnHandle.run()` returned the raw app-server `Turn`, whose live
start/completed payloads do not include loaded `items`, so users saw
empty `items` after starting a turn. That made the handle-based path
behave differently from `Thread.run(...)`, and pushed examples toward
persisted-thread reads plus helper extraction.

This PR makes the run APIs standalone: starting a turn and running it
returns collected turn data directly, or fails visibly when required
stream events are missing.

## What Changed

- Replaces the public `RunResult` export with `TurnResult`.
- Adds turn metadata to `TurnResult`: `id`, `status`, `error`,
`started_at`, `completed_at`, and `duration_ms`, alongside
`final_response`, `items`, and `usage`.
- Changes `TurnHandle.run()` and `AsyncTurnHandle.run()` to consume
stream events with the same collector used by `Thread.run(...)`.
- Exports `TurnError` from `openai_codex.types` for the new result
shape.
- Updates tests, examples, docs, and the walkthrough notebook to use
`result.final_response` and `result.items` directly.
- Removes persisted-thread helper paths and placeholder/skipped control
flows from the public examples and notebook.

## Verification

- `python3 -m py_compile ...` over changed SDK, example, and test Python
files.
- `python3 -c "import json;
json.load(open('sdk/python/notebooks/sdk_walkthrough.ipynb'))"`
- `git diff --check`
- `PYTHONPATH=sdk/python/src python3 -c ...` import/signature smoke for
`TurnResult`, `TurnHandle.run`, and `AsyncTurnHandle.run`.

- `thread.run("...")` started a turn, consumed events until completion, and returned `TurnResult` with turn metadata, final assistant response, collected items, and usage.
- `result.final_response` is `None` when no final-answer or phase-less assistant message item completes for the turn.

- use `thread.turn(...)` when you need a `TurnHandle` for streaming, steering, or interrupting before collecting `TurnResult`
- one client can consume multiple active turns concurrently; turn streams are routed by turn ID
