Introduces a TaskParams struct that decouples the Backend interface from the wire-format TaskAssignmentMessage. Common concerns (resolving env vars, default Docker image, base CLI args) are now handled by worker.prepareTaskParams() rather than individual backend implementations.

This PR is 1 of 3 to add direct (non-Docker) execution support:
