fix(ai): report compacted model context

[arhxam]

Summary

• feed the chat context pill from the existing native chatBudget endpoint, which measures the messages actually sent to the model
• retain the renderer transcript estimate as an immediate/browser/error fallback
• refresh usage whenever the active session's visible message array changes, including after manual compaction
• ignore late budget responses from a previously selected session

This is a follow-up to #238: preserving the complete transcript was correct, but it meant the transcript-based meter no longer reflected the compacted model payload.

• npx tsc -p tsconfig.test.json --noEmit
• npx biome check on all four changed files
• npm run docs:check
• npm run i18n:check
• npm run build-vite

Authored with Codex assistance and manually verified against the native modelMessages(session) budget path.

Warning

Review limit reached

@arhxam, you've reached your PR review limit, so we couldn't start this review.

Next review available in: 36 minutes

You've used all free OSS reviews for now. Wait for the free limit to reset to keep reviewing this public repository.

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please refer docs for additional details.
