Merge pull request #51 from 0xrushi/streaming_tasks_send_subscribe_fix

✅ No Adverse Effects Found

  The PR correctly addresses session and task ID consistency issues in streaming tasks. Key improvements:

  1. Session ID Management: The Task model now automatically generates a session_id in __post_init__ if none
  is provided (line 122-123 in task.py), ensuring consistent session tracking.
  2. Task ID Persistence: The streaming client maintains task and session IDs throughout the streaming
  process, preventing creation of multiple task instances.
  3. Enhanced Streaming Methods:
    - tasks_send_subscribe() properly maintains task state continuity
    - tasks_resubscribe() correctly handles existing task and session IDs
    - Task updates preserve ID consistency across streaming events
  4. Backward Compatibility: The changes maintain compatibility with existing non-streaming functionality.

  ✅ All Functionality Working

  Testing confirms:
  - Task-based streaming example runs successfully
  - Session and task IDs are properly maintained throughout streaming
  - Status updates (SUBMITTED → WAITING → COMPLETED) work correctly
  - No breaking changes to existing APIs

  ✅ Robust Error Handling

  The implementation includes proper fallbacks and error handling for cases where streaming isn't supported.
