Description
### Describe the bug
`Continuing autonomously` should not consume requests if it is triggered by AGENT ITSELF.

Research direction
No files, tests, reproduction steps, or entry points are named. Start by reproducing the transcript's autonomous continuation behavior in Copilot CLI and trace how premium requests are counted; done means agent-triggered continuation no longer consumes a Pro+ request while user-triggered requests still do.
