fix: Eliminate telemetry pause in streaming responses
- Make telemetry tracking asynchronous in all agent methods (chat, start, run) - For streaming responses, defer telemetry tracking until after generator consumption - Use separate daemon threads to prevent blocking on PostHog capture calls - Add comprehensive test script to verify fix works - Fixes issue where ~20 second pause occurred after ''execution tracked: success=True'' This resolves the streaming performance issue where telemetry calls were blocking the start of streaming responses, causing users to wait before seeing any output when using agent.start() with stream=True.
