Subject: [PATCH] feat(tui): wire EventBus into TuiApp for streaming event
 bridge

- event_bus is now accessible via event_sender() for background threads
- drain_events() processes TuiEvent variants and updates components:
  StreamTextDelta, TurnComplete, TurnError, TurnStarted, etc.
- read_line() drains events on each tick before polling for keys
- capture_turn() adds infrastructure for incremental output capture
- Fix flaky capture test (BufferRedirect shares fd across test threads)
- Current turn loop remains synchronous; background threading is next step
