🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Assert the provider-settlement boundary.

Lines 516-520 and Lines 550-551 only check relative ordering. A regression that assigns the request-start timestamp to all later lifecycle events will still pass these assertions.

Record a timestamp boundary immediately before structuredOutput returns or throws. Assert that synthesized post-provider events are not earlier than that boundary. Keep RUN_STARTED as the pre-request event.

Also applies to: 550-551

520, Update the lifecycle timestamp assertions around structuredOutput to record
a boundary immediately before it returns or throws, then assert synthesized
post-provider events are at or after that boundary. Preserve RUN_STARTED as the
pre-request event and retain the existing relative-order checks.
