feat(eve): key instrumentation events by identity

[chadhietala]

Summary

Related to #1659 and the proposal in #1799. Stacked on #1814 and still gated by experimental.instrumentationProviders.

Every lifecycle event now carries a required idempotencyKey. Matching starts and terminals share a key; ownership scopes prevent cross-session collisions; retries remain distinct; and replaying the same durable attempt reproduces its keys. Model keys derive from attempt and AI SDK step coordinates instead of the non-replay-stable AI SDK call ID.

This intentionally changes the experimental event contract: model and tool id becomes idempotencyKey, other lifecycle events gain the key, and turn/attempt terminals become discriminated settled/failed unions with error required only on failures. Durable provider state follows separately in #1847.

Validation

• Full rebased eve unit suite: 6,163 passed, 1 skipped
• Full eve integration suite: 618 passed
• Focused provider, eval, tracing, and compiled-artifact scenarios: 14 passed
• tsc -p packages/eve/tsconfig.json --noEmit
• pnpm guard:invariants; docs checks pass
• E2E not run locally; the provider layout remains behind the experimental flag

Checklist

• I linked an issue with prior discussion confirming this change is wanted
• I ran the relevant checks from CONTRIBUTING.md
• I added tests and documentation where relevant
• I added a changeset if this touches the published eve package
• DCO sign-off passes for every commit (git commit --signoff)

Build Timing: e2e/fixtures/agent-tools-sandbox

This is an informational timing measurement inside eve build, from preflight through publication. Output-size measurement and profile writing are excluded.

Build mode: deployable Vercel build with sandbox template prewarm included.

• Build pipeline: 2.49 s -> 1.96 s (-528.1 ms) vs instr/07-content-redaction (bf943ac).
• Timing is informational: shared GitHub runners are too variable for a hard timing budget.
