Owen Lin fc9cf62efb Add subagent lineage metadata for responsesapi (#24161)
## Why

We recently added `forked_from_thread_id` which lets us trace where a
thread's _context_ comes from, but we also want to understand subagent
lineage (e.g. which parent thread spawned this subagent? what kind of
subagent is it?) which is orthogonal.

This PR adds `parent_thread_id` and `subagent_kind` to the
`x-codex-turn-metadata` header sent to ResponsesAPI.

## What changed

- Adds `parent_thread_id` and `subagent_kind` to core-owned
`x-codex-turn-metadata`.
- Restores persisted `SessionSource` and `ThreadSource` from resumed
session metadata so cold-resumed subagent threads keep their lineage on
later Responses API requests.
- Centralizes parent-thread extraction on `SessionSource` /
`SubAgentSource` and reuses it in the Responses client, analytics, agent
control, and state parsing paths.
- Extends reserved-key, git-enrichment, thread-spawn, and app-server v2
metadata coverage for the new lineage fields.

## Verification

- Not run locally per request.
- Added focused coverage in `core/src/turn_metadata_tests.rs` and
`app-server/tests/suite/v2/client_metadata.rs`.

codex-protocol

This crate defines the "types" for the protocol used by Codex CLI, which includes both "internal types" for communication between codex-core and codex-tui, as well as "external types" used with codex app-server.

This crate should have minimal dependencies.

Ideally, we should avoid "material business logic" in this crate, as we can always introduce Ext-style traits to add functionality to types in other crates.
