PR-G6: gRPC chat REPL (scripts/chat_grpc.py)

A multi-turn chat client that uses the Python SDK to talk to a
running gRPC RuntimeService. Demonstrates the v0.3 session-bound
architecture's killer feature: the server keeps the running KV
cache, so every turn after the first appends only the new user
message \u2014 independent of conversation length.

Compare to scripts/chat.py (v0.2): that REPL re-prefilled the
full conversation on every turn against an in-process
SpeculativeEngine. This REPL holds one Session open across turns
and the server keeps O(history) cache; per-turn prefill is
O(new_user_message).

  Multi-turn REPL using:
    - kakeya.Client + kakeya.Session (the v0.3 SDK)
    - Qwen3-family AutoTokenizer for chat-template encoding +
      streaming detokenization
    - Slash commands: /help, /reset (close + new session),
      /info (history_length / kv_live_bytes / idle_seconds /
      INV-1/2 violation counts), /exit
    - Graceful Ctrl-C interrupts mid-generation; recovery via
      automatic session re-creation on KakeyaError
    - System prompt seeded on session creation
      (--system-prompt to customize, '' to skip)
    - Streaming token-by-token decode using the tokenizer's
      running buffer (same pattern as scripts/chat.py)

  Mac M4 reviewer aid:
    - Starts gRPC server with Qwen3-0.6B in background
    - Pipes a 3-turn conversation through chat_grpc.py via stdin
    - Asserts >=2 'kakeya>' response prompts in the output
    - Produces pr-g6-mac-chat-smoke-<unix>.json acceptance evidence

Per CLI-plumbing convention this script is exempt from the unit-
test coverage gate (no Linux unit tests added). End-to-end
behavior is exercised by:
  - tests/integration/test_sdk_real.py (the SDK methods this REPL
    drives; integration-tested against real Qwen3-0.6B)
  - scripts/review_pr_g6_on_mac.sh (the REPL flow itself, against
    a running gRPC server)

Usage
-----

    # 1. Start the runtime
    PYTHONPATH=.:sdks/python python3 \
        scripts/start_grpc_runtime_server.py \
        --backend cpu --verifier-id Qwen/Qwen3-0.6B \
        --bind 127.0.0.1:50051

    # 2. Chat
    PYTHONPATH=.:sdks/python python3 scripts/chat_grpc.py
    # > you> Hi.
    # > kakeya> Hello! How can I help you today?
    # > you> /info
    # >   history_length = 47
    # >   kv_live_bytes  = 6,815,744
    # >   idle_seconds   = 1.234
    # > you> /exit

Stack
-----
PR-G6 is independent of PR-G3 (#59 README) and PR-G5 (#60 prewarm
CLI). All three can land in any order.

Per ADR 0008 \u00a79: this PR ships a UX-only CLI. No new Linux unit
tests; no Linux gate impact. Mac M4 evidence required for merge
because the REPL is interactive against a real server.

+"""Streaming chat REPL over the Kakeya gRPC runtime (v0.3).
+
+A multi-turn chat client that uses the Python SDK to talk to a
+running ``RuntimeService``. Demonstrates the session-bound
+architecture's killer feature: the server keeps the running KV
+cache, so every turn after the first appends only the new user
+message — independent of conversation length.
+
+Compare to ``scripts/chat.py`` (v0.2): that REPL re-prefilled the
+full conversation on every turn against an in-process
+``SpeculativeEngine``. This REPL holds one ``Session`` open across
+turns and the server keeps O(history) cache; per-turn prefill is
+O(new_user_message).
+
+Usage::
+
+    # 1. In one terminal, start the runtime
+    PYTHONPATH=.:sdks/python python3 scripts/start_grpc_runtime_server.py \\
+        --backend cpu --verifier-id Qwen/Qwen3-0.6B \\
+        --bind 127.0.0.1:50051
+
+    # 2. In another terminal, chat
+    PYTHONPATH=.:sdks/python python3 scripts/chat_grpc.py
+    # Or, with options:
+    PYTHONPATH=.:sdks/python python3 scripts/chat_grpc.py \\
+        --address 127.0.0.1:50051 \\
+        --tokenizer-id Qwen/Qwen3-0.6B \\
+        --max-tokens 64
+
+REPL controls
+-------------
+
+  Type your message + Enter to send.
+  Ctrl-D or empty line to exit.
+  ``/reset`` on its own line: close current session, open new one
+                              (clear context).
+  ``/info`` on its own line: print server-side session state
+                              (history length, KV bytes, idle time).
+  ``/help``: this list.
+
+Per the project's CLI-plumbing convention this script is exempt
+from the unit-test coverage gate. End-to-end behavior is exercised
+by the SDK integration tests at
+``tests/integration/test_sdk_real.py`` which drive the same SDK
+methods this REPL drives.
