Add hook_report_level config to suppress routine hook chatter #17105

Problem

Codex hook notifications currently surface routine, non-actionable output like:

• “Running PreToolUse hook”
• “PreToolUse hook (completed)”
• “hook context: …” (from hook additionalContext)

This creates noise even when there are no warnings/errors/stops/blocks.

Proposed change

Add a config knob to control hook reporting without disabling hook execution:

hook_report_level = "off" | "error" | "warn" | "all"

• warn (default): suppress HookStarted; drop context entries; suppress empty “completed” hook blocks
• error: only show hook completions when status is failed/blocked/stopped (and only error/stop/feedback entries)
• all: legacy behavior
• off: emit nothing user-facing

Implementation (prototyped on a fork)

Fork branch: xsyetopz:fix/hook-report-level
Commit: a8133b308

Notes:

• This only filters user-facing hook started/completed notifications.
• It does not change whether hooks run, nor whether hook-provided additional context is injected into the model prompt.
