refactor: pin workflow host options explicitly

Explicitly configure AIAgentHostOptions for the workflow modes that
host agents directly instead of relying on Agent Framework defaults.

- add a shared host-options factory that preserves Aryx's current
  behavior
- use custom sequential, concurrent, and round-robin group-chat
  builders so all host options are set intentionally
- add workflow-level tests asserting the configured host options

Keep EmitAgentResponseEvents disabled because Aryx still projects
streaming transcript state itself and enabling response events would
require a separate reconciliation change.
