Gemini 3 Flash omits the `output` field in `codeExecutionResult` when code execution produces no text output (e.g., only saves files via PIL). This caused `AI_APICallError: Invalid JSON response` because the Zod schema required `output` to be a string. Changes: - Make `output` field `.nullish()` in the `codeExecutionResult` schema within `getContentSchema()` (affects both response and chunk schemas) - Default missing `output` to empty string in both doGenerate and doStream code paths - Add regression tests for both generateText and streamText with missing output field Closes vercel#12217
