Luxferre 141c6cc414 add non-interactive mode and the subagent delegation prompt
Port the two latest changes of the Perl original.

Non-interactive mode: a prompt as an argument runs that one task and exits.
Every word is joined into a single task, so quoting is optional, and an empty
or whitespace-only argument still opens the REPL. The ready banner moves to
stderr so stdout carries the answer, progress and token stats alone, stdout
is line buffered so a piped run arrives as it is written, and the process
exits with the task status: the command's own for !cmd, 1 on failure, 130 on
Ctrl-C. dispatch() returns an int for that.

Subagent delegation: the system prompt now tells the model it can split a
multi-stage task by copying .solo_sess.json into a fresh directory under the
scratch dir and re-launching this binary from there with the same endpoint,
model, tools and prompt, which the copy carries over. The prompt names our
own path, resolved through /proc/self/exe, and notes that a subagent answers
on stdout while its banner goes to stderr, so independent subtasks run in
parallel with &. The prompt buffer is now sized from the expanded paths, and
trailing slashes are stripped from SOLO_ENDPOINT as in the original, so the
command in the prompt is always well formed.

Also print the token stats only on the turn that ends the tool loop, as the
original does: they used to land in the middle of a tool run and chop up
whatever was piped out of a one-shot run.

Tests go to 28, all offline: 15 new ones, including a loopback mock endpoint
that drives a tool call and checks where the stats land.

Luxferre ecc48cd472 fix six defects and add an offline test suite
Four settings read from the environment (endpoint, model, reasoning,
scratch dir) pointed straight at getenv() memory instead of a copy,
and both setstr() and the cleanup at exit called free() on them.
Changing one of them from inside the session therefore freed the
environment block: "/endpoint http://x.example" with SOLO_ENDPOINT
set died inside the handler, and SOLO_TMPDIR killed the process on the
way out without a slash command at all. Reproduced on musl, both are
copies now, and the two post-load env re-reads go through setstr() so
they stop leaking the value create() already stored.

The generic parameter handler typed every number with
json_object_new_double, so "/max_tokens 4096" reached the endpoint as
4096.0 and "/seed 3" as 3.0. A number written without a decimal point
or an exponent now stays an integer, which is what the OpenAI schema
asks for; 0.7, .5 and 1e3 are still floats, and a word is still a
string.

The deadline for a command was time(0) + SOLO_TIMEOUT, and time()
counts whole seconds, so the effective limit was the timeout minus
whatever fraction of the second the command happened to start in.
Measured with SOLO_TIMEOUT=3, commands died after 2.38s, 2.47s, 2.68s
and 3.19s depending on the phase. rp() takes its deadline from
clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) now, which is also immune to the clock
being stepped underneath it.

A SOLO_TIMEOUT below 1 gave rp() a deadline already in the past, so
every command failed at once with "still running after 0s", and
atoi on anything unparseable lands there too. Below 1 now means no
limit. The API read, which passed time(0) + 1e9 to mean "never",
passes no deadline at all.

Only the child called setpgid(0,0), so a kill(-k, ...) issued before
the child reached it found no process group and was dropped, leaving
the command running as an orphan. A standalone harness confirms both
halves: without the parent claim the signal is lost and the child
runs to completion, with it the child dies. The parent claims the
group too, which is the belt to the child's braces.

hc() wrote the response envelope with one uncounted write(), so a
signal arriving mid-write truncated the JSON and the parent reported
"request failed" for a request that had in fact succeeded.

Both link steps write to <name>.new and rename it. Overwriting a
running executable fails with ETXTBSY, which is exactly what happens
when the agent rebuilds the binary it is itself running from, and a
failed link used to take the working binary with it. make clean now
removes the temp names as well.

test.sh holds 13 offline tests: no API key and no network, every line
handed to the agent starting with / or !, each test in its own
directory because the session file lives in the cwd. They cover the
four crash paths, integer/float/string typing, a staggered-start
sweep for the early timeout, SOLO_TIMEOUT=0 and a negative value,
process group cleanup after a timeout, and the tool description
quoting the real timeout. make test runs them. The README documents
the timeout semantics, the integer typing and the new build step.

Verified: 13 passed, 0 failed against the new binary, and 8 of the
13 fail against the previous one, which is what makes them regression
tests rather than decoration. Still silent under -Wall -Wextra and
under -Wshadow -Wformat=2 -Wcast-align -Wwrite-strings
-Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wredundant-decls -Wundef.
Built and tested on Alpine gcc 15.2 (musl) with libcurl 8.22.0,
json-c 0.19 and readline 8.3.
