feat(whatsapp): consolidate tool progress into single editable message

Instead of sending a separate WhatsApp message for each tool call during
agent execution (N+1 messages), the first tool sends a new message and
subsequent tools edit it to append their line. Result: 1 growing progress
message + 1 final response = 2 messages instead of N+1.

Changes:
- bridge.js: Add POST /edit endpoint using Baileys message editing
- base.py: Add optional edit_message() to BasePlatformAdapter (no-op
  default, so platforms without editing support work unchanged)
- whatsapp.py: Implement edit_message() calling bridge /edit
- run.py: Rewrite send_progress_messages() to accumulate tool lines and
  edit the progress message. Falls back to sending a new message if
  edit fails (graceful degradation).

Before (5 tools = 6 messages):
  ⚕ Hermes Agent ─── 🔍 web_search... "query"
  ⚕ Hermes Agent ─── 📄 web_extract... "url"
  ⚕ Hermes Agent ─── 💻 terminal... "pip install"
  ⚕ Hermes Agent ─── ✍️ write_file... "app.py"
  ⚕ Hermes Agent ─── 💻 terminal... "python app.py"
  ⚕ Hermes Agent ─── Done! The server is running...
