- PR #94686: fix(gateway): suppress session lease-wait lifecycle status when interim assistant messages are muted

These issues and fixes address WhatsApp gateway lifecycle status messages (session lease-wait, lease-contention, session-free) incorrectly appearing even when interim assistant messages or tool progress are configured to be muted. The fixes suppress these statuses to respect that configuration.
