Update poetry.lock to match pyproject.toml

- Fix serialization issue by filtering out reasoning_content when None in event_to_dict
- Update reasoning_content extraction to be consistent with thought extraction pattern
- Handle both direct attribute and embedded content list cases for robustness
- All failing tests now pass: action serialization, JSON serialization, and security parsing
