fix: surface agent stderr, auto-retry restart-killed tasks, handle stale sandboxes

#1 - Diagnostics: tailFile() reads last 20 lines of subprocess stderr and
appends to error message when claude/gemini exits non-zero. Previously all
exit-1 failures were opaque; now the error_msg carries the actual subprocess
output.

#4 - Restart recovery: RecoverStaleRunning() now re-queues tasks after
marking them FAILED, so tasks killed by a server restart automatically
retry on the next boot rather than staying permanently FAILED.

#2 - Stale sandbox: If a resume execution's preserved SandboxDir no longer
exists (e.g. /tmp purge after reboot), clone a fresh sandbox instead of
failing immediately with "no such file or directory".
