Michael Bolin 3dd08b4769 core: persist initial context window metadata
Record the initial AutoCompactWindowIds window_id in session_meta.context_window so JSONL tailers can observe the first context window before any compaction item exists. Thread creation now requires an initial_window_id string, while rollout JSONL keeps that value under the context_window namespace without writing derived chain fields for the initial window.

Rollout reconstruction derives window 0 state from that initial_window_id when no compaction window metadata exists. Forks intentionally use the same reconstruction path; consumers that need to distinguish copied initial-window metadata can use thread_id. Legacy compactions without window_number continue to use compaction-count fallback accounting.

codex-protocol

This crate defines the "types" for the protocol used by Codex CLI, which includes both "internal types" for communication between codex-core and codex-tui, as well as "external types" used with codex app-server.

This crate should have minimal dependencies.

Ideally, we should avoid "material business logic" in this crate, as we can always introduce Ext-style traits to add functionality to types in other crates.
