feat(context): implement token budget management (Phase 2)

Add TokenCalculator with LLM Gateway integration for accurate token
counting with in-memory caching and fallback character-based estimation.
Implement TokenBudget for tracking allocations per context type with
budget enforcement, and BudgetAllocator for creating budgets based on
model context window sizes.

- TokenCalculator: MCP integration, caching, model-specific ratios
- TokenBudget: allocation tracking, can_fit/allocate/deallocate/reset
- BudgetAllocator: model context sizes, budget creation and adjustment
- 35 comprehensive tests covering all budget functionality

Part of #61 - Context Management Engine
