feat(context): implement assembly pipeline and compression (#82)

Phase 4 of Context Management Engine - Assembly Pipeline:

- Add TruncationStrategy with end/middle/sentence-aware truncation
- Add TruncationResult dataclass for tracking compression metrics
- Add ContextCompressor for type-specific compression
- Add ContextPipeline orchestrating full assembly workflow:
  - Token counting for all contexts
  - Scoring and ranking via ContextRanker
  - Optional compression when budget threshold exceeded
  - Model-specific formatting (XML for Claude, markdown for OpenAI)
- Add PipelineMetrics for performance tracking
- Update AssembledContext with new fields (model, contexts, metadata)
- Add backward compatibility aliases for renamed fields

Tests: 34 new tests, 223 total context tests passing
