Fix activity completion when thread interrupted flag is set
Activities that catch InterruptedException, restore the interrupted flag, and continue execution were unable to report their completion due to gRPC call failures. This occurred because gRPC calls fail when the thread's interrupted flag is set. The fix clears the interrupted flag before making gRPC calls in ActivityWorker.sendReply() and restores it afterward, ensuring: - Activity results are successfully reported to the server - Thread interruption semantics are preserved for worker shutdown - All activity completion scenarios work (success/failure/cancellation) Additionally, extract executeGrpcCallWithInterruptHandling() method to eliminate code duplication across the three gRPC response calls, improving maintainability and reducing the risk of inconsistent implementations. Fixes: #731 Related: #722
