fix(subagents): make eval and queued steering nonblocking

Browse Source 
Make agent_eval return a running projection by default so follow-up steering does not wait for child model calls. Keep checkpoint resume blocking by default unless block=false is explicit.

Teach /agent, /swarm, prompts, and docs to poll workers nonblocking and reserve block:true for deliberate terminal waits. Add Ctrl+S as a reliable queued-message send path before falling back to draft stash.

`agent_eval` returns these fields at the top level of the session projection and

continued through the returned `follow_up` target (`agent_eval` with the same
