Alexander Payne 4998c5b6bf feat(visualization): add import_graph — Python module dependency visualizer ...

Issue #133 — "feat: import graph visualization for hermes-agent"

Adds scripts/import_graph.py — an AST-based Python import analyzer that
generates module-level dependency graphs in DOT format with cycle detection.

**Features**
- Walks a Python codebase, parses all import statements using ast
- Builds directed graph: module A → module B when A imports B
- Resolves relative imports correctly (from . import X, from ..pkg import Y)
- Distinguishes local packages from stdlib/third-party
- Detects circular dependencies — DFS cycle finder with detailed paths
- Exports DOT (Graphviz) for rendering to PNG/SVG
- CLI: path, --output, --cycles-only, --render-png, --render-svg

**Smoke tests** — tests/test_import_graph.py (3 passing)
- test_import_graph_creates_dot: validates DOT output on real repo
- test_import_graph_excludes_site_packages: handles noisy dirs cleanly
- test_import_graph_cycles_only_flag: --cycles-only exit codes

**Usage on hermes-agent**
```bash
# Generate DOT
python3 scripts/import_graph.py /path/to/hermes-agent --output hermes_imports.dot

# Only check for cycles
python3 scripts/import_graph.py /path/to/hermes-agent --cycles-only

# Render PNG (requires graphviz)
python3 scripts/import_graph.py /path/to/hermes-agent --render-png
```

Next: run on actual hermes-agent checkout to get the full graph.

Closes #133
