+- Added a `session_id` field to `RunnerArguments` so bots can log or trace a per-session identifier in local development the same way they can in Pipecat Cloud. The development runner now mints a UUID at every construction site, and paths that already returned a `sessionId` to the caller (Daily `/start`, dial-in webhook) share that same UUID with the runner args instead of generating two. The SmallWebRTC `/api/offer` endpoint also accepts an optional `session_id` query parameter so the `/sessions/{session_id}/...` proxy can thread it through.
