Subject: [PATCH] Align `sendEmail` and `sendEmailTask` with updated
 `BaseEmail` typing

- Refactor `sendEmail` to return extended type with `id` for better type inference.
- Update `sendEmailTask` to use `BaseEmail` instead of `Email`.
- Add `outputSchema` in `sendEmailTask` for consistent output structure.
