Vegard Stikbakke ec857fece5 fix(coding-agent): set executionMode: sequential on question example tool
The question extension tool blocks on ctx.ui.custom() but omitted
executionMode, so multiple question calls in one assistant turn ran
under the default parallel mode and raced on the editor slot. Only the
last question rendered; earlier calls hung pending forever.

Set executionMode: "sequential" so the agent loop serializes the
batch. Wrappers already propagate the field to the core.
