Represents a running or completed session for a Benchling App. App sessions track long-running app operations, providing status updates and user-facing messages. Each session belongs to a single app installation and progresses through a lifecycle from RUNNING to a terminal status. Sessions are updated by appending new versions, which can change the status, timeout, and displayed messages.
