## Message

```
Encourage editing over re-creating a file from scratch (#29870)

I also introduced a new eval to prove the encouragement actually makes a
difference.

Release Notes:

- Improved agent behavior when streaming edits, encouraging it to
editing files as opposed to creating them from scratch
```
