DottaandPaperclip ff24578765 fix(runner): initialize Rustls crypto provider (#13023)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip runs AI agents through local and remote execution
adapters.
> - The native runner daemon uses Rustls for secure transport.
> - The production dependency graph enables the `ring` and `aws-lc-rs`
crypto backends.
> - Rustls cannot select a default backend when both backends are
active.
> - The runner daemon did not select a backend before it built a TLS
client configuration.
> - This pull request installs the workspace-selected `ring` provider
during process startup.
> - The benefit is that the runner can start reliably with the
production feature graph.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

**What happened?**

`paperclip-runnerd` exited with code 101 before it opened a provider
session. Rustls reported that it could not select a process-level
`CryptoProvider` because the binary included two crypto backends.

**Expected behavior**

The runner daemon must select its configured crypto provider before it
creates a TLS client configuration. The daemon must start and open the
provider session.

**Steps to reproduce**

1. Build `paperclip-runnerd` with the locked production dependency
graph.
2. Start the daemon through the local loopback transport.
3. Observe the Rustls provider-selection panic before this change.

**Paperclip version or commit**

`d8b958053` on `master`.

**Deployment mode**

Self-hosted server.

**Installation method**

Built from source.

**Agent adapter(s) involved**

Codex through `paperclip_runner`.

**Operating system**

Linux 7.0.0-1010-aws on aarch64.

## What Changed

- Install the Rustls `ring` provider before runner setup reaches TLS
initialization.
- Accept an existing process-level provider as an initialized state.
- Add a focused regression test for TLS builder creation and repeated
initialization.

## Verification

- `cargo test --manifest-path
packages/paperclip-runner/runner/Cargo.toml --locked -p
paperclip-runner-core --bin paperclip-runnerd
startup_installs_a_crypto_provider_before_tls_initialization`
- `cargo test --manifest-path
packages/paperclip-runner/runner/Cargo.toml --locked -p
paperclip-runner-core --test local_runner
runnerd_startup_reports_build_metadata_without_panicking`
- `cargo test --manifest-path
packages/paperclip-runner/runner/Cargo.toml --locked -p
paperclip-runner-core --test local_runner
happy_path_emits_one_result_and_one_terminal`
- `cargo fmt --manifest-path packages/paperclip-runner/runner/Cargo.toml
--all -- --check`
- Built the debug daemon and ran `paperclip-runnerd --build-metadata`
successfully.
- `pnpm -r typecheck`
- `pnpm build`

## Risks

- Low risk. The change selects the crypto provider that the workspace
already declares.
- A host process can install a provider first. The runner accepts that
initialized state.
- No database, API, UI, telemetry, observability, or run-log contract
changes.

> For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and
discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap
with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap
first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex with model `gpt-5`. The context-window size is not
exposed. The model used reasoning, repository tools, code execution, and
test execution.
