kshitijk4poor 3c2886f599 fix(conversation): clear _mute_post_response on substantive tool-only turn
Salvage of #63888. The original fix clears stale _last_content_with_tools
on substantive tool-only turns but doesn't clear _mute_post_response, which
a prior housekeeping turn may have set. This suppresses tool progress
output via _vprint until the no-tool-call branch resets it at line ~4834
— after all tools have finished executing.

Fix: also reset _mute_post_response = False when clearing stale fallback.

Added test: verify pure housekeeping turns (content + only housekeeping
tools) still set the fallback correctly — the original use case the
fallback was designed for.

"""
Regression test for #63860.
A cached `_last_content_with_tools` response from a housekeeping-only turn
must not survive a later substantive tool-only turn. When the model returns
an empty response after the substantive tool turn, the system should enter
the post-tool nudge path, not use the stale housekeeping fallback.
Production impact: scheduled cron jobs could return early without
completing their actual work (e.g., daily report job returning a
housekeeping message instead of producing the report artifact).
Test sequence:
1. Content + todo (housekeeping) → sets fallback, marks as all-housekeeping
2. Empty content + web_search (substantive) → should CLEAR old fallback
3. Empty content, no tool calls → should enter post-tool nudge, not use old fallback
4. Content "Recovered after nudge." → should be returned as final response
Before the fix:
- Step 2 would not clear the fallback state (no visible content)
- Step 3 would incorrectly use the housekeeping fallback from step 1
- API calls would stop at 3, never reaching the nudge response
After the fix:
- Step 2 classifies tools and clears the fallback because web_search is substantive
- Step 3 enters the post-tool nudge path (no stale housekeeping fallback available)
- Step 4 returns the nudge response as the final answer
