Adds a new ItemStarted event and delivers UserMessage as the first item
type (more to come).
Renames `InputItem` to `UserInput` considering we're using the `Item`
suffix for actual items.
## Summary
- add a reusable `ev_response_created` helper that builds
`response.created` SSE events for integration tests
- update the exec and core integration suites to use the new helper
instead of repeating manual JSON literals
- keep the streaming fixtures consistent by relying on the shared helper
in every touched test
## Testing
- `just fmt`

## Summary
- replace manual event polling loops in several core test suites with
the shared wait_for_event helpers
- keep prior assertions intact by using closure captures for stateful
expectations, including plan updates, patch lifecycles, and review flow
checks
- rely on wait_for_event_with_timeout where longer waits are required,
simplifying timeout handling

# Tool System Refactor
- Centralizes tool definitions and execution in `core/src/tools/*`:
specs (`spec.rs`), handlers (`handlers/*`), router (`router.rs`),
registry/dispatch (`registry.rs`), and shared context (`context.rs`).
One registry now builds the model-visible tool list and binds handlers.
- Router converts model responses to tool calls; Registry dispatches
with consistent telemetry via `codex-rs/otel` and unified error
handling. Function, Local Shell, MCP, and experimental `unified_exec`
all flow through this path; legacy shell aliases still work.
- Rationale: reduce per‑tool boilerplate, keep spec/handler in sync, and
make adding tools predictable and testable.
Example: `read_file`
- Spec: `core/src/tools/spec.rs` (see `create_read_file_tool`,
registered by `build_specs`).
- Handler: `core/src/tools/handlers/read_file.rs` (absolute `file_path`,
1‑indexed `offset`, `limit`, `L#: ` prefixes, safe truncation).
- E2E test: `core/tests/suite/read_file.rs` validates the tool returns
the requested lines.
## Next steps:
- Decompose `handle_container_exec_with_params`
- Add parallel tool calls
