* Stream Responses output items from updates

Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

* Improve Responses streaming output handling

* Tighten Responses channel default option handling

- Restore full option parsing in parse_responses_request: known fields
  are remapped (max_output_tokens→max_tokens, parallel_tool_calls→
  allow_multiple_tool_calls), transport/session keys excluded, None
  values dropped, everything else forwarded as-is so run_hook can
  inspect the full set.
- Add a default _strip_options_hook on ResponsesChannel that removes
  all parsed options before reaching the agent. Callers cannot inject
  generation params (temperature, instructions, tools, …) unless the
  host explicitly allows it.
- A custom run_hook replaces the default entirely and receives the
  full ChannelRequest.options plus the raw protocol_request.
- Update tests to cover remap, default-strip, and custom-hook paths.
- Clarify host debug-log docstring to match new option flow.

Python Package Status

This file tracks the current lifecycle state of the Python packages in this workspace. Some packages at later stages might have features within them that are not ready yet, these have feature stage decorators on the relevant APIs, and for experimental features warnings are raised. See the Feature-level staged APIs section below for details on which features are in which stage and where to find them.

Status is grouped into these buckets:

  • alpha - initial release and early development packages that are not yet ready for general use
  • beta - prerelease packages that are not currently release candidates
  • rc - release candidate packages, these are close to ready for release but may still have some breaking changes before the final release
  • released - stable packages without a prerelease suffix, these are stable packages that should not have breaking changes between versions
  • deprecated - removed or deprecated packages that should not be used for new work
