What
New turn_handoff request and response let a session client transfer an in-progress turn (one whose last assistant message has tool calls that haven't run yet) to a worker process, which validates and runs the calls and continues the turn.
The worker replies as accepted or duplicate, or with typed errors such as turn_handoff_disabled, invalid_handoff, unsupported_tool, or recovered_by_restart.
A new turn_handoff_available system event is emitted once a worker can accept a handoff, carrying the tools it will accept, a worker_epoch, and an optional relay_marker flag, so a client learns the capability from the event stream instead of probing the worker.
