feat(progress): add timeout protection and strip withGadgets from callProgressModel

[aaight]

Summary

• Add PROGRESS_TIMEOUT_MS = 10_000 constant and wrap callProgressModel in a Promise.race with a 10s timeout — matching the pattern used by generateAckMessage in ackMessageGenerator.ts
• Remove unnecessary .withGadgets() from the AgentBuilder chain in callProgressModelOnce (empty gadgets still initialises the subsystem with no benefit for a one-shot call)
• Extract inner LLM call to callProgressModelOnce so the timeout wrapper stays clean
• Add 9 direct unit tests for callProgressModel covering: success, multi-event concatenation, non-text event filtering, empty-output error, no-events error, timeout, and LLM throw

Test plan

• tests/unit/backends/progressModel.test.ts — 9 new unit tests for callProgressModel (all pass)
• tests/unit/backends/progress.test.ts — 43 existing ProgressMonitor tests pass unchanged (mock signature unchanged)
• Full test suite (2734 tests) passes
• Lint passes (biome)
• Type check passes

🤔 Just a sec, looking into that timeout protection

Summary

LGTM — clean implementation of timeout protection for callProgressModel, with proper cleanup and a sensible extraction of the inner LLM call.

Notes

The timeout implementation is actually an improvement over the existing ackMessageGenerator.ts pattern — it correctly clears the timer in a finally block and suppresses the unhandled rejection on the timeout promise (the ack generator does neither). Nice.

Minor observations (non-blocking)

• tests/unit/backends/progressModel.test.ts:38-41 — getMockRun() helper is defined but never called in any test. Dead code that can be removed.
• tests/unit/backends/progressModel.test.ts:140-177 — The timeout test doesn't exercise the actual setTimeout timeout path. It makes the LLM async generator throw the same error message by manually calling rejectFn. This is effectively a second "LLM throws" test. Using vi.useFakeTimers() + vi.advanceTimersByTime(10_000) would properly verify the real timeout branch wins the race. The comments acknowledge this limitation — just noting it could be strengthened if desired.

Nitpick: getMockRun is defined but never called — leftover from an earlier draft? Safe to remove.
