Erosika 3b2edb347d fix(gateway): scrub memory-context leaks from vision auto-analysis output
fixes #5719

The auxiliary vision LLM called by gateway._enrich_message_with_vision
can echo its injected Honcho system prompt back into the image
description.  That description gets embedded verbatim into the enriched
user message, so recalled memory (personal facts, dialectic output)
surfaces into a user-visible bubble.

Strips both forms of leak before embedding:
  - <memory-context>...</memory-context> fenced blocks (sanitize_context)
  - trailing '## Honcho Context' sections (header + everything after)

Plus regression tests:
  - tests/agent/test_streaming_context_scrubber.py — 13 tests on the
    stateful scrubber (whole block, split tags, false-positive partial
    tags, unterminated span, reset, case-insensitivity)
  - tests/run_agent/test_run_agent_codex_responses.py — 2 new tests on
    _fire_stream_delta covering the realistic 7-chunk leak scenario and
    the cross-turn scrubber reset
  - tests/gateway/test_vision_memory_leak.py — 4 tests covering the
    vision auto-analysis boundary (clean pass-through, '## Honcho Context'
    header, fenced block, both patterns together)

"""Unit tests for StreamingContextScrubber (agent/memory_manager.py).
Regression coverage for #5719 — memory-context spans split across stream
deltas must not leak payload to the UI. The one-shot sanitize_context()
regex can't survive chunk boundaries, so _fire_stream_delta routes deltas
through a stateful scrubber.
