kshitijk4poor d43863f005 fix: widen stale circuit breaker to non-streaming path + all provider-swap resets
Review findings on the salvaged #60332 breaker, fixed as follow-ups:

- restore_primary_runtime() now resets the streak (third provider-swap
  path; without it a recovered primary was short-circuited before a
  single attempt and could never be re-proven healthy except via /model).
- interruptible_api_call (non-streaming) now carries the same breaker
  (guard at entry, bump on stale_call_kill, reset on success). Quiet-mode
  / subagent / headless sessions — the profile most like #58962's
  unattended 494-failure session — take this path and had the identical
  infinite stale-retry class.
- Partial-stream stub return now resets the streak (chunks were received,
  provider demonstrably responsive).
- Consolidated the triple-duplicated counter arithmetic into shared
  helpers (_stale_streak/_bump_stale_streak/_reset_stale_streak/
  _check_stale_giveup) with one canonical comment block; error message
  now says 'consecutive stale attempts' (the counter counts kills, not
  turns — a single turn can produce several).

4 new tests (restore resets / no-op restore keeps latch / non-streaming
short-circuit / non-streaming success reset).

"""Follow-up for the cross-turn stream-stale circuit breaker (#58962).
The breaker latches: once ``_consecutive_stale_streams`` reaches the give-up
threshold, ``interruptible_streaming_api_call`` raises BEFORE any stream is
attempted — so the "reset on successful stream" path can never run again on
its own. The breaker's error message tells the user to "switch models …
then retry", and the provider-fallback chain swaps providers on the same
agent object, so BOTH swap paths must clear the streak or a healthy new
provider would keep short-circuiting forever:
- ``switch_model()`` (user-initiated /model swap)
- ``try_activate_fallback()`` (automatic provider fallback)
- ``restore_primary_runtime()`` (turn-start restore back to the primary)
The non-streaming sibling ``interruptible_api_call`` shares the same
breaker (guard at entry, bump on stale_call_kill, reset on success) —
quiet-mode / subagent sessions take that path and had the identical
infinite stale-retry class.
