fix(#3996): carry agy stderr in the antigravity stub and gate the stall tell on the watermark (#4184)

* test(#3996): antigravity diagnostic must carry stderr and gate the stall tell

* fix(#3996): carry agy stderr in the antigravity stub and gate the stall tell

* fix(#3996): drop the stall token from the session-started sentence

* fix(#3996): decide session-started from watermark growth, type the failure mode

* chore(#3996): changeset for antigravity diagnostic stderr carry

**`/gsd:review` --antigravity: a failed Antigravity lane's stub now carries `agy`'s stderr and no longer asserts the pre-session-stall case when a session verifiably started — a headless tool-permission denial is self-diagnosing instead of mis-signposted. (#3996)
