🧭 refactor: Align HITL Surface with Agents SDK Permissions Model

Reshapes Slice A on top of the agents SDK's now-landed HITL surface (`createToolPolicyHook`, discriminated `HumanInterruptPayload`, `'bypass'` mode naming). Host stops reimplementing evaluation logic and becomes a config mapper + payload wrapper. Schema (data-provider): - `toolApproval` shape now mirrors SDK `ToolPolicyConfig` 1:1: `mode: 'default' | 'dontAsk' | 'bypass'`, plus `allow` / `deny` / `ask` glob lists and an optional `reason` template. `enabled` is the LibreChat-only admin kill switch. - `'bypass'` (not `'bypassPermissions'`) — matches the SDK's surface. Types (`Agents.*` namespace): - `HumanInterruptType` extended to `'tool_approval' | 'ask_user_question'`. - `HumanInterruptPayload` is now a discriminated union — `tool_approval` carries `action_requests` + `review_configs`; `ask_user_question` carries a free-form question with optional curated options. - New: `AskUserQuestionRequest`, `AskUserQuestionOption`, `AskUserQuestionResolution`. - `ToolApprovalDecision` (string union) renamed to `ToolApprovalDecisionType` to free the `Decision` name for the SDK's discriminated object union later. - `ToolApprovalResolution` gains `reason?` and `scope?: 'once' | 'session' | 'always'` so route signatures stabilize before persistence lands. Policy module (`packages/api/src/agents/hitl/policy.ts`): - Drop `decideToolApproval` / `requiresApproval` / `ToolRef` — the SDK's `createToolPolicyHook` handles full evaluation (`deny → bypass → allow → ask → dontAsk → fallthrough(ask)`). - Add `isHITLEnabled(policy)` — the kill-switch predicate that gates the SDK's `humanInTheLoop: { enabled: false }` opt-out in Slice B. - Add `mapToolApprovalPolicy(policy)` — strips `enabled`, returns a `ToolPolicyConfig` to feed `createToolPolicyHook`. Structural mirror of the SDK type so this compiles before the SDK upgrade ships. - Reshape `buildPendingAction(payload, ctx)` to wrap any `HumanInterruptPayload` with job context — accepts SDK output directly. - Add `buildToolApprovalPayload(...)` and `buildAskUserQuestionPayload(...)` helpers for synthesizing payloads in tests / pre-SDK flows. Tests: - 22 new unit tests covering the mapper, predicate, and payload builders; 20 → 27 total pass across policy + manager-lifecycle suites.
