fix: Increase subprocess buffer size to handle large JSON messages

This fixes JSONDecodeError when Claude generates very long responses.
The default subprocess pipe buffer was too small for large single-line
JSON messages, causing truncation at around 64KB.

Increased buffer size to 10MB which should handle most real-world cases.

Fixes #32

# This test would require a mock or the actual CLI
# For now, we document the expected behavior
# The SDK should handle responses with:
# - Very long single-line JSON messages (>64KB)
# - Messages containing complex nested structures
# - Tool results with large outputs
# Example of what previously failed:
# Large responses would truncate at buffer boundary causing:
# JSONDecodeError: Unterminated string starting at: line 1 column 170
# With the fix, these should parse successfully
pass # Placeholder for actual integration test
