feat: add immediate environment persistence in E2E test initialization

- Persist environment state immediately after creation in TestContext::init()
- Extract persistence logic into private persist_initial_environment_state() method
- Ensure Created state is saved before any commands execute
- Maintain observability with proper error handling and logging

This ensures environment state is captured from the beginning of tests,
improving traceability and debugging capabilities for E2E test scenarios.
