Fix lint issues and update agent.execute_task for recursion depth

- Remove unused imports and variables in test files
- Replace bare except with specific exception in structured_output_converter.py
- Fix None comparison in llm_test.py
- Update agent.execute_task to accept recursion_depth parameter

Resolves all remaining lint issues for A2A protocol implementation.
