Teknium cac6178104 fix(gateway): propagate user identity through process watcher pipeline
Background process watchers (notify_on_complete, check_interval) created
synthetic SessionSource objects without user_id/user_name. While the
internal=True bypass (1d8d4f28) prevented false pairing for agent-
generated notifications, the missing identity caused:

- Garbage entries in pairing rate limiters (discord:None, telegram:None)
- 'User None' in approval messages and logs
- No user identity available for future code paths that need it

Additionally, platform messages arriving without from_user (Telegram
service messages, channel forwards, anonymous admin actions) could still
trigger false pairing because they are not internal events.

Fix:
1. Propagate user_id/user_name through the full watcher chain:
   session_context.py → gateway/run.py → terminal_tool.py →
   process_registry.py (including checkpoint persistence/recovery)

2. Add None user_id guard in _handle_message() — silently drop
   non-internal messages with no user identity instead of triggering
   the pairing flow.
