test(pty): fake PTY session driver with an injectable clock through the runner launch seam

The three plan-skill runners take an optional PtyDriver (launch, now,
monotonic, sleep); omitted, they use the real launcher and clocks exactly as
before. test/helpers/pty/fake-session.ts feeds scripted frames through that
seam, and claude-pty-runner.runners.unit.test.ts runs observation, counting
and floor for success, deadline timeout, permission prompt and plan-ready
outcomes with no CLI or real timers. These cases must stay green unchanged
through the W4 split and the runPtySession extraction.

Touchfiles: every entry that lists claude-pty-runner.ts or pty-screen.ts now
also lists test/helpers/pty/**.
