fix: filter empty string args before Bun spawn() to prevent CLI parsing errors (#1781)

Bun's child_process.spawn() silently drops empty string arguments from
argv, unlike Node which preserves them. When the Agent SDK defaults
settingSources to [] (empty array), [].join(",") produces "" which gets
pushed as ["--setting-sources", ""]. Bun drops the "", causing
--permission-mode to be consumed as the value for --setting-sources:

  Error processing --setting-sources: Invalid setting source: --permission-mode

This caused 100% observation failure (exit code 1 on every SDK subprocess
spawn), resulting in 0 observations stored across all sessions.

The fix filters empty string args before passing to spawn(), making the
behavior consistent between Node and Bun runtimes.

Fixes #1779
