feat(hermes): Phase 2c — multi-turn history passed natively to all paths

Completes the Phase 2 scope by keeping conversation turns as turns across
all three dispatch paths. Pre-2c, history was flattened into a single user
message via shared_runtime.build_task_text, which worked as a fallback but
lost the model's native multi-turn awareness (role attribution,
instruction-following on mid-conversation corrections, system-prompt
grounding against prior turns).

Phase 2a + 2b shipped the dispatch infrastructure + per-provider native
paths. This PR uses them properly.

## What's new

- **`_history_to_openai_messages(user_message, history)`** (static) — maps
  A2A `(role, text)` tuples to OpenAI Chat Completions
  `[{"role":"user"|"assistant","content":str}]`. Roles: `human`→`user`,
  `ai`→`assistant`. Current turn appended as the final user message.

- **`_history_to_anthropic_messages`** (static) — identical wire shape to
  OpenAI for text-only turns, so it delegates. Phase 2d tool_use/vision
  blocks will diverge here.

- **`_history_to_gemini_contents`** (static) — Gemini uses a different
  shape: `role="user"|"model"` (NOT "assistant") and text wrapped in
  `parts=[{"text":...}]`. Delegates to none of the others.

- **`_do_openai_compat(user_message, history=None)`** — accepts history,
  builds messages via `_history_to_openai_messages`. Back-compat: pass
  `history=None` to get the old single-turn behavior.

- **`_do_anthropic_native(user_message, history=None)`** — same signature
  change, calls `_history_to_anthropic_messages`. Still uses
  `anthropic.AsyncAnthropic().messages.create()`, just with proper
  multi-turn.

- **`_do_gemini_native(user_message, history=None)`** — same pattern,
  calls `_history_to_gemini_contents`, passes to Gemini's
  `generate_content(contents=...)`.

- **`_do_inference(user_message, history=None)`** — new signature,
  dispatches by auth_scheme as before, passes both args through.

- **`execute()`** — no longer calls `build_task_text`. Calls
  `extract_history(context)` directly and forwards to `_do_inference`.
  Removes the `build_task_text` import (not needed in this file anymore).

## Tests

Existing 7 dispatch tests updated for the new `(user_message, history)`
signature — they assert the path is called with `("hello", None)` since
they pass no history.

5 NEW tests:

- `test_history_to_openai_messages_empty_history` — empty history degrades
  to single user message (back-compat)
- `test_history_to_openai_messages_multi_turn` — round-trip of a 3-turn
  history + current turn
- `test_history_to_anthropic_messages_same_as_openai` — cross-check that
  anthropic path produces identical wire shape for text-only
- `test_history_to_gemini_contents_uses_model_role_and_parts_wrapper` —
  verifies the Gemini-specific role mapping (`ai`→`model`) + parts wrapper
- `test_dispatch_passes_history_through` — end-to-end: _do_inference
  forwards history to the chosen provider path

All 41 tests pass (15 Phase 2 dispatch + 26 Phase 1 registry):

    pytest tests/test_hermes_phase2_dispatch.py tests/test_hermes_providers.py
    41 passed in 0.07s

## Back-compat

- No public API changes to `create_executor()`. Callers that hit
  `execute()` via A2A get the new multi-turn behavior automatically via
  `extract_history(context)`.
- Callers that passed an empty history list (or None) get the same
  single-turn behavior as pre-2c.
- The `build_task_text` helper in shared_runtime is unchanged — other
  adapters (AutoGen, LangGraph) that use it keep working. Only Hermes
  bypasses it now.

## What's NOT in this PR (Phase 2d)

- Tool calling / function calling on native paths (anthropic `tools=`,
  gemini `tools=Tool(function_declarations=[...])`)
- Vision content blocks (image_url → anthropic `{type:"image", source:
  {type:"base64",...}}` / gemini `{inline_data:{mime_type,data}}`)
- System instructions pass-through (anthropic `system=`, gemini
  `system_instruction=`)
- Streaming (`astream_messages` / `streamGenerateContent` stream variants)
- Extended thinking (anthropic `thinking={"type":"enabled"}`) / Gemini
  thinking config

Phase 2c is the **multi-turn upgrade**. Tool + vision + streaming are
Phase 2d, scoped in project_hermes_multi_provider.md.
