fix: auto-initialize extension context in kit.New()

Extensions were being loaded automatically by SetupAgent but the context
was never initialized unless the SDK user explicitly called
SetExtensionContext. This left extensions with a zero-value Context where
all function fields are nil.

Now kit.New() automatically calls SetExtensionContext with minimal defaults
(CWD, Model, Interactive=false) when extensions are loaded. SDK users can
still call SetExtensionContext to override with richer implementations
(TUI callbacks, prompts, etc.).

Combined with the normalizeContext() safety net in the runner, extensions
are now guaranteed to work in SDK mode without explicit context wiring.
