Nathan Esquenazi 429a0ea228 feat: handle auto-compaction side effects + /compact command ...

The agent's run_conversation() already triggers context compression
internally, but the WebUI was unaware of the side effects:

1. Session ID rotation: compression creates a new session_id inside
   the agent. The WebUI kept writing to the old session file, causing
   silent data loss. Fix: detect agent.session_id mismatch after
   run_conversation(), rename the session file, and update in-memory
   caches.

2. No user notification: compression was invisible. Fix: emit a
   'compressed' SSE event when compression is detected. Frontend shows
   a system message and toast.

3. No manual control: Fix: add /compact slash command that sends a
   message to the agent requesting context compression. Shows in the
   autocomplete dropdown.

Detection works two ways:
- agent.session_id != original session_id (ID rotation)
- agent.context_compressor.compression_count > 0 (compressor state)

Closes #90
