tmux.SessionOptionValues.StatusFormat() -> OptionValue[SparseArray[string]]
```

StatusFormat returns materialized "status-format" as [OptionValue] with value type OptionValue[SparseArray[string]] from session option values; it does not query tmux. Available as STRING since tmux 3.2a; set it with [Session.SetStatusFormat] or [GlobalSessionScope.SetStatusFormat]. Its present SparseArray value preserves assigned tmux indexes, including gaps.
