 * Task tool - Delegate tasks to specialized agents.

 * Discovers agent definitions from:
 *   - Bundled agents (shipped with omp-coding-agent)
 *   - ~/.omp/agent/agents/*.md (user-level)
 *   - .omp/agents/*.md (project-level)
 *
 * Supports:
 *   - Single agent spawn per call (parallelism = parallel task calls)
 *   - Batch spawning + shared context per call when `task.batch` is enabled
 *   - Background execution through AsyncJobManager when `async.enabled` is enabled
 *   - Progress tracking via JSON events
 *   - Session artifacts for debugging
