CRABHIVE 52d33a87a0 fix: include MCP tool results in microcompact to reduce token waste (#348)
## Summary

- Added `isCompactableTool()` helper in `microCompact.ts` that matches
  both the existing COMPACTABLE_TOOLS set and any tool prefixed `mcp__`
- MCP tool results were never compacted because the hardcoded allowlist
  only contained 9 built-in tools — MCP tools fell through and persisted
  in full for the entire session, wasting 10-500K tokens/session

## Impact

- user-facing impact: long sessions using MCP servers (GitHub, Slack,
  Playwright, etc.) will compact stale MCP tool results, reducing token
  usage and delaying autocompact triggers
- developer/maintainer impact: new MCP servers are automatically covered
  via prefix match — no need to update the allowlist per-server

## Testing

- [x] `bun run build`
- [x] `bun run smoke`
- [x] focused tests: `bun test src/services/compact/microCompact.test.ts`
  - module exports load correctly
  - estimateMessageTokens counts MCP tool_use blocks
  - microcompactMessages processes MCP tools without error
  - microcompactMessages processes mixed built-in and MCP tools

## Notes

- provider/model path tested: n/a (compaction logic is model-agnostic)
- screenshots attached (if UI changed): n/a
- follow-up work or known limitations: subagent results and thinking
  blocks are still not compacted (separate RFCs)

// Since collectCompactableToolIds is not exported, we test the predicate
// behavior by verifying that the module loads without error and that
