remove task list from review bodies; keep in progress comments only (#542)

review bodies were embedding a task-list snapshot that could capture
stale in-progress state due to timing between the agent's final
TodoWrite and the review submission API call. progress comments
are the authoritative checklist surface — remove the review-body
embedding entirely so there is a single source of truth.

also adds a `completeInProgress` option to `renderCollapsible` so
the progress-comment path can finalize any in-progress items at
render time without mutating tracker state.
