Add provider_name, model, and reasoning fields to BuildSystemPromptOptions so Tau's system prompt includes the agent's actual runtime identity. The system prompt now contains 'You are running as: provider: X, model: Y, reasoning: Z.' when identity fields are set, enabling agents to report their identity without parsing session metadata. Both call sites (session load and reload) pass identity through. reasoning_effort_for_level maps Tau's thinking level (off/minimal/...) to the standard reasoning effort vocabulary (none/minimal/...). Fixes: FAI-299

Tau generally follows the lead of Pi and Pi explicitly does not include these details in the system prompt. Pi's system prompt contains no model, provider, reasoning level, date, or env section at all, following the minimalist goal of the project. |

Summary
Add provider_name, model, and reasoning fields to BuildSystemPromptOptions so Tau's system prompt includes the agent's actual runtime identity.
Changes
Why
Previously, agents couldn't reliably know their own provider/model/reasoning without parsing session metadata. The old approach of ~/.tau/APPEND_SYSTEM.md with static text couldn't use template variables. This code-level fix injects the identity at build time so every agent session starts with this information baked into the system prompt.
