João Moura 4718b190d1 fix(cli): open the conversational TUI for a declarative chat flow (#7060)
* fix(cli): open the conversational TUI for a declarative chat flow

`crewai run` refused a declarative conversational flow and told the user to
drive it from Python. That was wrong: the conversational TUI already exists and
already does this job. `CrewRunApp(conversational=True)` renders a chat pane and
drives `handle_turn` per message (crew_run_tui.py:833-935), and
`kickoff_flow._run_conversational_flow_tui` launches it for a Python
conversational Flow.

A declaration-built flow satisfies everything that TUI needs -- `handle_turn`,
a settable `defer_trace_finalization`, and `finalize_session_traces()` -- so it
now routes there instead of exiting.

A chat loop still needs a terminal. A headless run (`is_interactive()` false,
which folds in CREWAI_DMN) says what it would have needed rather than kicking
off a single turn and presenting that as the whole conversation.

* fix(cli): do not send a human-feedback chat flow to the Textual TUI

A declaration can carry both a `conversational:` block and a method with
`human_feedback:` -- verified, both predicates return True on the same flow.
Routing it to the chat TUI hangs: the runtime collects feedback with a blocking
`input()` (flow/runtime/__init__.py:3719) that Textual cannot service, so the
prompt is never shown. The STEPS TUI already declines these for exactly this
reason. Such a flow now falls back to the terminal REPL, which can prompt.

Also updates the guide in en/ar/ko/pt-BR: it still said `crewai run` has no
chat loop and exits, which is now the opposite of what the CLI does.

* fix(cli): reject --inputs on a conversational flow instead of dropping it

The conversational branch returns before `_resolve_flow_inputs`, and the TUI
calls `handle_turn(message)` -- which owns the kickoff inputs, passing
`{"id": session_id}` itself. So any `--inputs` value was silently discarded and
the conversation ran as if it had been applied. It now errors, and says that
resuming a session by id is not wired up yet rather than implying it worked.

Also corrects the Arabic guide: `مُوجّه محجوز` reads as "reserved router", not
the blocking prompt it describes.

Both found by CodeRabbit on #7060.

* fix(cli): document the conversational routing exceptions

Three review follow-ups:

- The Arabic guide read خدمته (masculine) against the feminine
  مُطالبة introduced by the last fix.
- Both docstrings described a routing path that now has exceptions: a
  conversational declaration rejects --inputs and skips state-schema
  resolution, and a human-feedback one uses the terminal REPL.
- The --inputs rejection test accepted SystemExit(0); it now pins code 1.

Found by CodeRabbit on #7060.

* fix(cli): reject --inputs on a chat flow even when it parses empty

parse_inputs_json returns {} both when the option is absent and when the user
passes --inputs "{}", so the falsy check started the TUI for the second case
while the docs said it was unsupported. The conversational path now takes
whether the option was supplied, not what it parsed to.

Documents the restriction in en, ar, ko and pt-BR.

Found by CodeRabbit on #7060.

* test(cli): pin the headless conversational exit status

pytest.raises(SystemExit) also accepts SystemExit(0), so the error path could
regress to a successful exit unnoticed.

Found by CodeRabbit on #7060.
