Add context-window snapshot API for agent stages (#378)
## Summary

Adds a best-effort `GET
/api/v1/runs/{id}/stages/{stageId}/context-window` endpoint that exposes
model-visible input-token usage, broken down by category (system prompt,
tools, MCP tools, skills, memory, conversation, other). The endpoint
degrades gracefully: it returns a stored projection snapshot when the
stage is inactive, and `available: false` when no snapshot has ever been
observed rather than surfacing count gaps as HTTP errors.

### Plan Summary

- **Unit 1** – OpenAPI schemas (`StageContextWindow`,
`StageContextWindowProjection`, breakdown/enum types) and generated Rust
+ TypeScript clients, with `fabro-api` build-time type replacements
pointing at the hand-written `fabro-types` structs.
- **Unit 2** – `ToolSource` enum on `RegisteredTool` (Native / Mcp /
Skill) + `ToolDefinitionWithSource`; new `context_window.rs` builder in
`fabro-agent` that assembles a content-free category breakdown at
request-assembly time; `fabro-llm::token_count` narrow public helpers
(`estimate_message_tokens`, `estimate_tool_definition_tokens`,
`estimate_request_control_tokens`).
- **Unit 3** – `AgentEvent::ContextWindowSnapshot` carries a
`StageContextWindowProjection`; the session emits a local snapshot
immediately, then a provider-scaled replacement (or
response-usage-scaled replacement) asynchronously; fingerprinting
prevents double-counting the same request.
- **Unit 4** – Server endpoint (stubbed routing; full handler targets a
follow-up) returning the latest projected snapshot.
- **Unit 5** – `queryKeys.runs.stageContextWindow`,
`useRunStageContextWindow` hook, and SSE invalidation for
`agent.context_window.snapshot` and all stage-lifecycle events.

### Key design decisions

**Agent-side counting, not server-side.** The exact `fabro_llm::Request`
only exists inside the active agent session. Rather than moving raw
prompt/message content into server-managed state, the session counts the
request it already has and emits content-free projection events. The
HTTP endpoint just reads the latest durable snapshot.

**Hybrid category ownership.** `fabro-agent` owns the category taxonomy
(it sees memory documents, skills, MCP registration, and session
history); `fabro-llm` exposes narrow estimation helpers. Neither crate
leaks the other's concerns.

**Provider count is async and non-blocking.** A spawned task calls
`Client::count_input_tokens(..., PreferProvider)` with a clone of the
request. It is cancelled via `close_token` when the session closes.
Failures produce a warning on the snapshot, not a stage error.

**`available: false` instead of 4xx for known-but-unobserved stages.**
The sidebar needs stable empty states; HTTP errors only mean the run or
stage doesn't exist.

    G --> H[run_state reducer\nupdates StageProjection.context_window]
    F --> H
    H --> I[GET context-window endpoint\nreturns projection]
```

**`ToolSource` on every `RegisteredTool`.** All 20+ `make_*_tool` call
sites are updated to set `ToolSource::Native`; MCP tools get
`ToolSource::Mcp { server_name }` at registration time;
`make_use_skill_tool` gets `ToolSource::Skill`. A parallel
`definitions_with_source_for_policy` method preserves existing
`definitions_for_policy` behaviour unchanged.
