teknium1 6a22abe5ba fix: retire clarify cards on an explicit no-answer signal, not the '[' prefix
`_clarify_callback_sync` decided "no answer arrived" by testing whether the
response text starts with '[' (the shape of the timeout / undeliverable
sentinels). A real answer can start with '[' too — a "[A] staging" choice
label picked by number, or "[urgent] ..." free text after Other — so the
clarify resolved and the agent got the answer, yet the Slack card was
rewritten to "This prompt expired" and typing was never re-armed.
`_clarify_send_then_wait` now returns `(response, answered)` and the runner
branches on that flag only.

The Slack click handler popped the retire entry as soon as Other was
clicked, but Other is not terminal: the clarify stays pending for typed
text, so a later timeout or /new reset found nothing to retire and the card
stayed stuck on "Awaiting typed answer". The entry is now popped only on a
terminal outcome (a choice click, or Other on an already-dead entry).

A typed answer to a native card (numeric pick, or text after Other) never
reaches the click handler, so the card kept its buttons forever; the
TEXT_RESOLVED intercept now retires it with the answer.

Review finding: '[' prefix mistaken for the timeout sentinel; Other click dropped the retire entry; typed answers never rewrote the card.
