feat: add tool-level file cache with LRU eviction and mtime invalidation

Introduces FileCache (OrderedDict LRU, st_mtime_ns validation) to avoid
redundant disk reads and duplicate content in conversation context.
Read tools return a short "[Cached]" message on cache hit instead of
resending unchanged file content, saving tokens. Write/edit/delete tools
invalidate affected paths; str_replace pre-warms the cache after edits.
