Lambda durable function replay turned a human-approved refund into an escalation

One developer's Lambda durable function executed 'escalate' after a human approved 'refund', because replay ran the uncheckpointed agent call a second time. Whatever a human signs off on has to be checkpointed with context.step so every replay returns the same value.
