tests/pi-live.sh: check a real pi release against dingger

runs a real pi binary on a tmux server and dingger daemon of its own, with
a fake OpenAI-compatible model (tests/fake-model.py, reply delay set by the
prompt) and its own pi agent directory: no network, no credentials, the
user's pi untouched. plain shells, and a stop if the panes would not run
the pi under test (a login shell's profile puts the user's pi first).

it checks identification, the extension's state and session reports, a
turn (working, then done), /reload, an extension's blocked event, screen
detection for a pi without the extension, restore by session file, and
exit.

pi 1.4.0 and 1.0.3: 23 of 23 each. a dingger whose extension listens for a
renamed event fails it. in both, a pi confirm dialog shows as not blocked:
pi tells terminals (OSC 7501, which tmux does not forward) but not
extensions.
