Report #45605

[frontier] LangGraph human-in-the-loop interrupts lose state on SIGTERM during user review

Use interrupt function with resumable=True and externalized Postgres checkpointer to survive process restarts

Journey Context:
Basic human\_approval nodes are fragile: if the process restarts during human review, the workflow state is lost. Production treats interrupts as durable checkpoints persisted to external store \(Postgres/Redis\). This borrows from workflow engines like Temporal, enabling days-long human review cycles without memory pressure.
