Ahmed Ibrahim f2036572b6 Replay EventMsgs from Response Items when resuming a session with history. (#3123)
### Overview

This PR introduces the following changes:
	1.	Adds a unified mechanism to convert ResponseItem into EventMsg.
2. Ensures that when a session is initialized with initial history, a
vector of EventMsg is sent along with the session configuration. This
allows clients to re-render the UI accordingly.
	3. 	Added integration testing

### Caveats

This implementation does not send every EventMsg that was previously
dispatched to clients. The excluded events fall into two categories:
	•	“Arguably” rolled-out events
Examples include tool calls and apply-patch calls. While these events
are conceptually rolled out, we currently only roll out ResponseItems.
These events are already being handled elsewhere and transformed into
EventMsg before being sent.
	•	Non-rolled-out events
Certain events such as TurnDiff, Error, and TokenCount are not rolled
out at all.

### Future Directions

At present, resuming a session involves maintaining two states:
	•	UI State
Clients can replay most of the important UI from the provided EventMsg
history.
	•	Model State
The model receives the complete session history to reconstruct its
internal state.

This design provides a solid foundation. If, in the future, more precise
UI reconstruction is needed, we have two potential paths:
1. Introduce a third data structure that allows us to derive both
ResponseItems and EventMsgs.
2. Clearly divide responsibilities: the core system ensures the
integrity of the model state, while clients are responsible for
reconstructing the UI.

codex-core

This crate implements the business logic for Codex. It is designed to be used by the various Codex UIs written in Rust.

Dependencies

Note that codex-core makes some assumptions about certain helper utilities being available in the environment. Currently, this

macOS

Expects /usr/bin/sandbox-exec to be present.

Linux

Expects the binary containing codex-core to run the equivalent of codex debug landlock when arg0 is codex-linux-sandbox. See the codex-arg0 crate for details.

All Platforms

Expects the binary containing codex-core to simulate the virtual apply_patch CLI when arg1 is --codex-run-as-apply-patch. See the codex-arg0 crate for details.
