fix(workspace): replace _run() with @pytest.mark.asyncio in test_a2a_tools_inbox_wrappers

Replace the `_run(coro) = asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(coro)`
pattern with proper `@pytest.mark.asyncio` async test methods.

Root cause (issue #307): `_run()` creates a nested event loop that bypasses
pytest-asyncio's lifecycle management. With `asyncio_mode = auto`, the
auto-awaitification + nested loop corrupts event loop state when conftest.py
fixtures (from test_a2a_executor.py etc.) run first — coroutines are never
executed and RuntimeWarnings fire. The tests pass in isolation (no prior
fixtures) but fail in the full suite (14/14 failures, 1959 passed, exit code 1).

Fix: convert all 14 test methods to `async def` with `@pytest.mark.asyncio`
decorators and `await` calls. pytest-asyncio now owns the event loop lifecycle
for these tests, eliminating the nested-loop corruption entirely.

Note: #272 (sqlalchemy missing) and #271 (MODEL_PROVIDER test isolation) were
already resolved at time of investigation — sqlalchemy is in requirements.txt
and _clean_model_env fixture already handles MODEL_PROVIDER cleanup.
