Console 0.2.16

Release Notes: Modular Process Orchestration

This release shifts to a modular, event-driven architecture for more robust child process management and system stability.

🚀 Enhanced Process Orchestration

• New Hooks: Introduced prepareChildProcess() for resource isolation and childProcessExitedHook() for reactive exit handling.
• Flexible Scaling: SupervisorConfig now defaults to unlimited children (maxChildren = 0).

🛡️ Unified State & Events

• Single Source of Truth: Replaced RuntimeStatus with a consolidated ExecutionState (Initializing to Finished).
• Observability: The changeState() helper ensures all transitions automatically dispatch RuntimeStatusChange events with full context.

🛠️ Structural Refinement

• Enforced Patterns: exec() is now protected, requiring the state-aware burn() pattern for execution.
• Plugin Architecture: Features like CrashRecoverableTrait are now decoupled and strictly opt-in.
• Loop Tracking: AbstractCliProcess now maintains currentTickNum for easy interval-based logic.

📟 IPC & Protocol

• Hardened IPC: Improved binary framing and configurable socket blocking modes.
• Message Reliability: MessageFrame protocol now supports robust encoding and clear sender identification.
