fix: handle unclosed tool calls and GLM arg parsing edge cases (#1344)

## Motivation

Tool-call requests can hang indefinitely when `max_tokens` truncates
generation mid-tool-call.

## Reproduction

1. Send a chat completion with `tools` and a low `max_tokens` (e.g. 65)
to Qwen3-0.6B
2. Model generates `<think>...</think>` then starts `<tool_call>` but
`max_tokens` cuts it off before `</tool_call>`
3. **Before this fix:** `parse_tool_calls` buffers tokens after
`<tool_call>`, generator exhausts, buffered tokens (including
`finish_reason`) are silently dropped → stream hangs forever
4. **After this fix:** buffered tokens are flushed as regular text with
`finish_reason` propagated → response returns normally with
`finish_reason: "length"`

Confirmed with fresh local testing: 4 unclosed tool call flushes
triggered in a single session. Also confirmed via production logs from
Jan 29 (2 occurrences).

## Changes

1. **`parse_tool_calls` unclosed tool call flush** — when the generator
exhausts inside an open `<tool_call>` block, flush buffered tokens as
regular text and propagate `finish_reason`
2. **GLM regex fix** — match literal `\n` (not escaped `\\n`) between
arg tags; handle missing `</arg_value>` via lookahead
3. **7 new unit tests** for `parse_tool_calls` covering unclosed,
closed, passthrough, and failed-parse scenarios

## Why It Works

- `parse_tool_calls` now has a post-loop check: if `in_tool_call` is
still true, it yields the buffered text with the tracked `finish_reason`
instead of silently dropping it
- The GLM regex now matches real-world output where newlines appear
between tags and `</arg_value>` may be absent

## Test Plan

### Manual Testing
- Qwen3-0.6B-4bit with `tools` + various `max_tokens` values (61-75)
- Confirmed responses return with `finish_reason: "length"` instead of
hanging
- Log output shows `"generator exhausted inside unclosed tool call,
flushing buffered text"`

### Automated Testing
- 7 new tests in `test_parse_tool_calls.py`
- Full test suite passes (`uv run pytest`)
