mrshu 19b0ddce40 fix(process): correct detached crash recovery state
Previously crash recovery recreated detached sessions as if they were
fully managed, so polls and kills could lie about liveness and the
checkpoint could forget recovered jobs after the next restart.
This commit refreshes recovered host-backed sessions from real PID
state, keeps checkpoint data durable, and preserves notify watcher
metadata while treating sandbox-only PIDs as non-recoverable.

- Persist `pid_scope` in `tools/process_registry.py` and skip
  recovering sandbox-backed entries without a host-visible PID handle
- Refresh detached sessions on access so `get`/`poll`/`wait` and active
  session queries observe exited processes instead of hanging forever
- Allow recovered host PIDs to be terminated honestly and requeue
  `notify_on_complete` watchers during checkpoint recovery
- Add regression tests for durable checkpoints, detached exit/kill
  behavior, sandbox skip logic, and recovered notify watchers

"""
Process Registry -- In-memory registry for managed background processes.
Tracks processes spawned via terminal(background=true), providing:
- Output buffering (rolling 200KB window)
- Status polling and log retrieval
- Blocking wait with interrupt support
- Process killing
- Crash recovery via JSON checkpoint file
- Session-scoped tracking for gateway reset protection
Background processes execute THROUGH the environment interface -- nothing
runs on the host machine unless TERMINAL_ENV=local. For Docker, Singularity,
Modal, Daytona, and SSH backends, the command runs inside the sandbox.
Usage:
from tools.process_registry import process_registry
# Spawn a background process (called from terminal_tool)
session = process_registry.spawn(env, "pytest -v", task_id="task_123")
# Poll for status
result = process_registry.poll(session.id)
# Block until done
result = process_registry.wait(session.id, timeout=300)
# Kill it
process_registry.kill(session.id)
