Teknium ca03486b6a fix(streaming): stop duplicating tool-call args from cumulative-resend providers (#35718)
DeepSeek / Baidu Qianfan stream tool-call arguments in cumulative mode:
each chunk resends the full arguments-so-far instead of the new fragment.
The stream accumulator blindly concatenated arg deltas with +=, turning
that into '{...}{...}{...}', which failed json.loads and got nuked to '{}'
— a silently corrupted tool call (#35592). Worse on multi-param tools
(search_files, session_search, memory replace) because longer args take
more chunks, giving more resend opportunities.

- Per-slot cumulative latch in the stream accumulator: a delta that is a
  strict superset of the accumulated buffer marks the slot cumulative and
  replaces (not appends); exact duplicates are dropped only after latching.
  Incremental fragments are untouched (default += path).
- Backstop _collapse_repeated_json_arguments() in the repair pipeline
  collapses pure identical-resend buffers (K exact repeats of a valid-JSON
  unit) for providers that resend the complete object from chunk 1. Only
  reached after json.loads already failed, so compliant single objects are
  never touched.

Not a gateway or DeepSeek-model bug — any OpenAI-wire provider in
cumulative streaming mode is affected.

"""Message and tool-payload sanitization helpers.
Pure functions extracted from ``run_agent.py`` so the AIAgent module can
stay focused on the conversation loop. These walk OpenAI-format message
lists and structured payloads, repairing or stripping problematic
characters that would otherwise crash ``json.dumps`` inside the OpenAI
SDK or be rejected by upstream APIs.
All helpers are stateless and side-effect-free except for in-place
mutation of their input (where documented). Backward-compatible
re-exports from ``run_agent`` remain in place so existing imports
``from run_agent import _sanitize_surrogates`` keep working.

Some OpenAI-compatible streaming providers (DeepSeek / Baidu Qianfan
among them) resend the *full* cumulative ``arguments`` string in every
stream chunk instead of incremental fragments. Our stream accumulator
concatenates argument deltas with ``+=`` (correct for spec-compliant
incremental providers), so a cumulative-resend provider yields the
object repeated once per chunk:
'{"path":"x"}{"path":"x"}{"path":"x"}...'
A spec-compliant provider always produces exactly one valid JSON object
after concatenation, so this function is only ever reached for strings
that already fail ``json.loads`` (issue #35592).
Detection is unambiguous and operates on the fully-accumulated string,
not on partial per-chunk data: the input must be K>=2 *exact* repeats of
a unit substring that itself parses as valid JSON. Returns the single
collapsed unit (re-serialised compactly) when that holds, else ``None``
so the caller falls through to the generic repair passes.
Safety: a single object like ``{"command":{"command":"x"}}`` parses on
the first ``json.loads`` attempt in the caller and never reaches here;
even if it did, it is not an exact-repeat string, so this returns
``None`` and leaves it untouched.
