Add integration tests proving tool results are never parsed as tool calls

Adds 3 new tests to json_parsing_stress_test.rs:
- test_tool_result_with_json_not_parsed: Full agent integration test proving
  that JSON in tool results (sent TO the LLM) is never parsed by the
  streaming parser (which only sees LLM output)
- test_parser_only_processes_completion_chunks: Documents that StreamingToolParser
  only accepts CompletionChunk, not Message objects
- test_architectural_separation_documented: Documents the data flow showing
  tool results flow TO the LLM while the parser only sees FROM the LLM

This proves the architectural guarantee: there is no code path where
tool result content could be parsed as a tool call, because:
1. Tool results are Message objects added to context_window
2. The streaming parser only processes CompletionChunk from provider.stream_completion()
3. These are completely separate data types flowing in opposite directions

Total: 41 JSON parsing stress tests now pass.
