feat: Rust port of Claude Code CLI

Crates:
- api: Anthropic Messages API client with SSE streaming
- tools: Claude-compatible tool implementations (Bash, Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep + extended suite)
- runtime: conversation loop, session persistence, permissions, system prompt builder
- rusty-claude-cli: terminal UI with markdown rendering, syntax highlighting, spinners
- commands: subcommand definitions
- compat-harness: upstream TS parity verification

All crates pass cargo fmt/clippy/test.
