e2fe1373f3 fix: escalate read/search blocking, track search loops, filter completed todos
- Block file reads after 3+ re-reads of same region (no content returned)
- Track search_files calls and block repeated identical searches
- Filter completed/cancelled todos from post-compression injection
  to prevent agent from re-doing finished work
- Add 10 new tests covering all three fixes

9eee529a7f fix: detect and warn on file re-read loops after context compression
When context compression summarizes conversation history, the agent
loses track of which files it already read and re-reads them in a loop.
Users report the agent reading the same files endlessly without writing.

Root cause: context compression is lossy — file contents and read history
are lost in the summary. After compression, the model thinks it hasn't
examined the files yet and reads them again.

Fix (two-part):
1. Track file reads per task in file_tools.py. When the same file region
   is read again, include a _warning in the response telling the model
   to stop re-reading and use existing information.
2. After context compression, inject a structured message listing all
   files already read in the session with explicit "do NOT re-read"
   instruction, preserving read history across compression boundaries.

Adds 16 tests covering warning detection, task isolation, summary
accuracy, tracker cleanup, and compression history injection.
