feat: consolidate Phase 7 + wire replay view for background tasks + add interrupted tooltip

- Consolidate Phase 7a (FileLockManager), 7b (LockGuardedToolExecutor + tool runner integration), and 7c (persistent background task history) into single branch
- Wire background task clicks in History view to open the read-only BackgroundTaskReplayView instead of creating a resumable task
- Add StandardTooltip on interrupted background tasks explaining they were interrupted due to VS Code closing
- Add interruptedTooltip i18n key across all locales
- Add tests for replay view routing and tooltip rendering
