Add smart yolo mode

[iscekic]

Context

We want to make yolo mode a bit safer by introducing a gatekeeper AI, which will approve or deny each action taken by the yolo mode agent.

Implementation

The main file where everything happens is gatekeeper.ts. The other changes are all due to singleCompletionHandler (and in turn, completePrompt) changing the return type due to us needing to show costs for a gatekeeper request.

For each action the coding agent wants to take, the gatekeeper agent is asked "do you approve?". Some non-destructive tools are pre-approved.

Screenshots

How to Test

1. Open settings, add a new configuration (see screenshot)
2. Go to Auto-Approve -> enable yolo mode and set the new configuration as the gatekeeper
3. Start any task - you should have benefits of auto mode with some safety

Pull Request Overview

This PR adds a "smart YOLO mode" feature that allows users to configure an AI gatekeeper model to evaluate actions before auto-approving them in YOLO mode, providing a safety layer. The implementation includes:

• A new yoloGatekeeperApiConfigId setting to select which model acts as the gatekeeper
• Comprehensive gatekeeper evaluation logic that assesses tool operations based on risk
• Modified completePrompt API signature across all providers to return structured results with usage information and support system prompts
• UI integration in the auto-approve settings panel

Wouldn't you avoid most of these changes by using the streaming function? (createMessage)

I think you're right, I didn't realize it also returned usage along with the message. 🤦🏻‍♂️

I'll push an update tomorrow.
