Each `DurableContext` tracks its own replay state via an `isReplaying` field, initialized by checking `ExecutionManager.hasOperationsForContext(contextId)`. `StepContext` does not track replay state because steps are retried by attempt, not replayed as independent contexts.

 If the wait duration hasn't elapsed when the step completes, the execution is suspended. If the step finishes *after* the wait, the step thread keeps the execution alive (prevents suspension) while the wait polls to completion.
