Set default worker pollers to 1 for OrchestratorMode

[Copilot]

This change reduces the default number of pollers from 2 to 1 for both workflows and activities when using WorkflowOrchestrator, making it more resource-efficient for typical orchestrator use cases.

Changes

• Modified NewWorkflowOrchestrator in worker/workflow_orchestrator.go to set default pollers to 1
• Only applies when using default values - custom user options are still respected
• Added comprehensive unit tests to verify the behavior

Implementation

The change is minimal and surgical:

// Set default pollers to 1 for orchestrator mode (unless explicitly overridden)
if orchestratorOptions.WorkflowPollers == DefaultOptions.WorkflowPollers {
    orchestratorOptions.WorkflowPollers = 1
}
if orchestratorOptions.ActivityPollers == DefaultOptions.ActivityPollers {
    orchestratorOptions.ActivityPollers = 1
}

Behavior

• With nil options: Uses 1 poller for workflows and activities (previously 2)
• With default options: Reduces pollers from 2 to 1
• With custom options: Respects user-specified values unchanged

Testing

• Added unit tests covering all scenarios
• Verified orchestrator sample works correctly
• All existing tests continue to pass

This makes orchestrator mode more lightweight while preserving backward compatibility for users who explicitly set custom poller counts.

Fixes #385.
