feat(agent): add pipeline mode with dynamic prompts to agent loop

When pipelineMode is enabled in AgentLoopOptions, the loop uses
buildDynamicPrompt() with per-screen context (editable fields,
scrollable elements, app hints, stuck state) instead of the static
mega-prompt. Legacy mode (default) is unchanged.
