MCPArea: what it touches

In DevelopmentSection of the release
The MCP call wrapper now carries a background-task handle, but nothing requests a task in this build.
What
The MCP call wrapper now carries a background-task handle and the application state setter, so a slow MCP tool could show up as a task in an ordinary interactive session. Subagent calls and non-interactive sessions are excluded.
Details
The existing auto-background delay for MCP calls is passed alongside the new handle.
Subagent calls are identified by the call carrying an agent id.
The task pathway this feeds is not requested by anything in this build.
