Support background tool execution #9462

Description

@LiusCraft

Background\nTool execution (e.g., bash/task/batch) waits for child processes to exit and cannot keep running in the background; only service processes like LSP are long‑lived.\n\n## Expected\nSupport tools running persistently in the background (e.g., long‑running tasks/daemons), with the ability to check status, view output, and stop them.\n\n## Possible direction\n- Add tool execution modes: foreground / background\n- Provide status and log query APIs for background jobs\n- Provide explicit stop/cleanup mechanisms
