fix: unify gateway session hygiene with agent compression config

The gateway had a SEPARATE compression system ('session hygiene')
with hardcoded thresholds (100k tokens / 200 messages) that were
completely disconnected from the model's context length and the
user's compression config in config.yaml. This caused premature
auto-compression on Telegram/Discord — triggering at ~60k tokens
(from the 200-message threshold) or inconsistent token counts.

Changes:
- Gateway hygiene now reads model name from config.yaml and uses
  get_model_context_length() to derive the actual context limit
- Compression threshold comes from compression.threshold in
  config.yaml (default 0.85), same as the agent's ContextCompressor
- Removed the message-count-based trigger (was redundant and caused
  false positives in tool-heavy sessions)
- Removed the undocumented session_hygiene config section — the
  standard compression.* config now controls everything
- Env var overrides (CONTEXT_COMPRESSION_THRESHOLD,
  CONTEXT_COMPRESSION_ENABLED) are respected
- Warn threshold is now 95% of model context (was hardcoded 200k)
- Updated tests to verify model-aware thresholds, scaling across
  models, and that message count alone no longer triggers compression

For claude-opus-4.6 (200k context) at 85% threshold: gateway
hygiene now triggers at 170k tokens instead of the old 100k.

Verifies that the gateway detects pathologically large transcripts and
triggers auto-compression before running the agent. (#628)
The hygiene system uses the SAME compression config as the agent:
compression.threshold × model context length
so CLI and messaging platforms behave identically.
