New rendering makes it hard to determine what agent was last doing when copilot crashes #2324

Description

Describe the bug

I keep seeing copilot crash across my tabs. This is annoying, but in the past, I could scroll up to see what was last going on to simplify figuring out which session to use with copilot --resume. With the new rendering, there is nothing useful in my terminal output.

Affected version

GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.11

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Run copilot, do a bunch of work, copilot crashes, nothing useful in terminal output.

Expected behavior

Ideally, I'd like to see the copilot --resume hint when copilot crashes. Could this be modified to output this to the original stdOut when the sessionId is decided or updated?

Additional context

I appreciate that with the new rendering the constant redraw issue hasn't been occurring anymore, but getting back to my sessions is harder.
