Artifact list results now report instructions text length and whether it was clipped or unavailable

What

The result of listing artifacts can now include instructions, instructions_chars, instructions_clipped, and instructions_unavailable fields, alongside the existing instructions_file field.

Why

This gives more detail about an artifact's instructions text directly in the list result, including its length and whether it was cut short or couldn't be retrieved, rather than only pointing to a separate instructions file.
