feat: priority-based context file selection + CLAUDE.md support (#2301)
Previously, all project context files (AGENTS.md, .cursorrules, .hermes.md) were loaded and concatenated into the system prompt. This bloated the prompt with potentially redundant or conflicting instructions. Now only ONE project context type is loaded, using priority order: 1. .hermes.md / HERMES.md (walk to git root) 2. AGENTS.md / agents.md (recursive directory walk) 3. CLAUDE.md / claude.md (cwd only, NEW) 4. .cursorrules / .cursor/rules/*.mdc (cwd only) SOUL.md from HERMES_HOME remains independent and always loads. Also adds CLAUDE.md as a recognized context file format, matching the convention popularized by Claude Code. Refactored the monolithic function into four focused helpers: _load_hermes_md, _load_agents_md, _load_claude_md, _load_cursorrules. Tests: replaced 1 coexistence test with 10 new tests covering priority ordering, CLAUDE.md loading, case sensitivity, injection blocking.
