feat(planning): let CreateChildTask set maxTurns on child tasks

Planning sessions could already steer a subtask's model but not its turn
budget, so a visibly large subtask would still die at the global default
turn limit. maxTurns is optional (default null = inherit list/global
default, matching model); 0/negative values are rejected as invalid input,
consistent with the existing model-alias validation.

Per-list config (`list_config` in DB) provides defaults for `model`, `system_prompt`, `agent_path`; tasks can override each individually. Task-generating MCP tools (`AddTask`, planning `CreateChildTask`, `SuggestImprovement`) accept an optional `model` (alias-validated via `ModelRegistry.NormalizeAlias` — `haiku`/`sonnet`/`opus`, blank = inherit) so Claude assigns the cheapest capable model at creation time; the planning/system/improvement prompts instruct it to do so (`ModelRegistry.ByCostAscending` = the cost order).

Planning's `CreateChildTask` additionally accepts an optional `maxTurns` (positive int; `0`/negative rejected with `ArgumentException`, null = inherit list/global default) so the planner can raise the turn budget for a subtask it knows will run long; `SuggestImprovement`/`AddTask` do not expose it.
