[codex] harden heartbeat run summaries and recovery context (#3742)

## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for zero-human companies
> - Heartbeat runs are the control-plane record of what agents did, why
they woke up, and what operators should see next
> - Run lists, stranded issue comments, and live log polling all depend
on compact but accurate heartbeat summaries
> - The current branch had a focused backend slice that improves how run
result JSON is summarized, how stale process recovery comments are
written, and how live log polling resolves the active run
> - This pull request isolates that heartbeat/runtime reliability work
from the unrelated UI and dev-tooling changes
> - The benefit is more reliable issue context and cheaper run lookups
without dragging unrelated board UI changes into the same review

## What Changed

- Include the latest run failure in stranded issue comments during
orphaned process recovery.
- Bound heartbeat `result_json` payloads for list responses while
preserving the raw stored payloads.
- Narrow heartbeat log endpoint lookups so issue polling resolves the
relevant active run with less unnecessary scanning.
- Add focused tests for heartbeat list summaries, live run polling,
orphaned process recovery, and the run context/result summary helpers.

## Verification

- `pnpm vitest run
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-context-summary.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-list.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/agent-live-run-routes.test.ts
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts`

## Risks

- The main risk is accidentally hiding a field that some client still
expects from summarized `result_json`, or over-constraining the live log
lookup path for edge-case run routing.
- Recovery comments now surface the latest failure more aggressively, so
wording changes may affect downstream expectations if anyone parses
those comments too strictly.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent in the Codex CLI environment.
Exact backend model deployment ID was not exposed in-session.
Tool-assisted editing and shell execution were used.
