Images and audio generated during a run are now consistently included in run output regardless of the `store_media` setting. Media is scrubbed before being written to the database, keeping storage lean while ensuring callers always receive the full output they expect.

Details**:**

- Generated media (images, audio) is present in run output in all cases
- Media is stripped from the payload prior to database storage, decoupling output completeness from persistence behavior
- `store_media` continues to control persistence; output delivery is no longer tied to it
