test(ai): lock JSON mode forwarding for ToolLoopAgent object output

[giulio-leone]

Summary

• add regression tests proving ToolLoopAgent.generate() forwards Output.object() as responseFormat: json
• add regression tests proving ToolLoopAgent.stream() forwards Output.object() as responseFormat: json
• this complements existing coverage already present for generateText, streamText, and streamObject

Context

Issue #12491 reports missing provider-level JSON mode with generateText + Output.object(). This PR hardens the agent layer to ensure no regression in the agent.generate() / agent.stream() path.

Validation

• pnpm --filter ai exec vitest --config vitest.node.config.js --run src/agent/tool-loop-agent.test.ts
• pnpm --filter ai exec eslint src/agent/tool-loop-agent.test.ts
• pnpm --filter ai type-check
• repeated the same validation suite twice consecutively with zero failures

Closes #12491

Pull request overview

This PR adds regression tests to ToolLoopAgent to verify that Output.object() is correctly forwarded as responseFormat: json to the underlying generateText and streamText calls. It complements existing output-mode coverage in generate-text.test.ts and stream-text.test.ts by adding the same verification at the agent layer.

Changes:

• Adds a new import { object } import from the internal output module in the test file
• Adds a generate test verifying Output.object sets responseFormat to json with schema
• Adds a stream test verifying the same for the streamText path

Intervention note for this PR:

Current blocker appears to be Vercel deployment authorization, not code/test correctness.

Observed pattern:

• Vercel check fails with: "Authorization required to deploy."
• Other checks (e.g., Socket Security / Vercel Agent Review) are passing.

Recommended unblock sequence:

1. Complete the Vercel Git authorization flow from the failing check link.
2. Re-run checks on this PR.
3. If Vercel passes, this PR should move forward with normal review.

If useful, I can follow up with a PR-by-PR status sweep after authorization is completed.
