Subject: [PATCH 06/10] Keep a same-tool rejection in force for the whole
 session

The recent outcomes the model sees are capped, so a rejection could drop
out after a few newer decisions and let an authorization path approve the
rejected tool. Look the rejection up session-wide and treat a lookup
failure as a rejection.

A call assessed while the owner rejected another call to the same tool
could still auto-run on the stale lookup. Check again before reserving
the auto-approval and ask instead.

Subject: [PATCH 08/10] Check a same-tool rejection inside the Auto approval
 claim

The recheck before reserving still left a window before the claim. The
claim now fails, and its reservation is cancelled, when the requester
has rejected a call to this tool in the session, so a rejection that
commits before the call runs is never missed.

Subject: [PATCH 09/10] Serialize same-tool rejections with Auto's approval

the same transaction lock, so the claim's check always sees a rejection
that committed first.
