## Title

    [@google/genai] streamFunctionCallArguments with automatic function calling: 'this feature is not compatible with automatic function calling (AFC)'

## Body

    Cause (Documented platform behavior): Partial streamed arguments cannot be executed by the automatic function calling loop.
    
    Fix status: documented_behavior
    
    Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor):
    - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/googleapis/js-genai/4d7e80b03dda3b9104649cb69bd8471f52f0c207/src/models.ts (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): generateContentStream validation throws this error when streamFunctionCallArguments is set and AFC is not disabled.
    
    Search phrasings: streamFunctionCallArguments automatic function calling error; gemini stream function call arguments AFC incompatible
    
    Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): public_source.
