Tom Boucher 0e1711b460 fix(workflow): carve out Other+empty exception from answer_validation retry loop (#2093) ...

When a user selects "Other" in AskUserQuestion with no text body, the
answer_validation block was treating the empty result as a generic empty
response and retrying the question — causing 2-3 cascading question rounds
instead of pausing for freeform user input as intended by the Other handling
on line 795.

Add an explicit exception in answer_validation: "Other" + empty text signals
freeform intent, not a missing answer. The workflow must output one prompt line
and stop rather than retry or generate more questions.

Fixes #2085
