fix(recovery): retry a system-woken run once when it lost its runner before any turn

A system wake whose remote run lost its Runner before any turn or tool
event rested on a manual Retry, although nothing it did could be
repeated. requestInterruptedNativeTurnRetry now requests the Retry once
under the run's responsible user in exactly that case; every other
system wake keeps the visible Retry.
