test(ci): add Cache Guard CI test for prefix-cache stability

Add a CI guard test that verifies prefix-cache stability across
multi-turn conversations.

The test runs 8 test cases × 14-24 turns each:
- plain-dialogue (14 turns, with/without reasoning)
- long-dialogue (18 turns)
- mixed-message-sizes (20 turns)
- tool-loop (14 turns, with/without reasoning)
- long-tool-loop (24 turns, with/without reasoning)
- compaction-must-cause-at-least-one-miss (30 turns)

Environment variables:
- CODEWHALE_CACHE_GUARD=1: Enable the guard (default: disabled)
- CODEWHALE_CACHE_GUARD_THRESHOLD=40: Hit rate threshold (0-100)
- CODEWHALE_CACHE_GUARD_STRICT=1: Fail on threshold violation

Usage:
  CODEWHALE_CACHE_GUARD=1 cargo test --test cache_guard
  CODEWHALE_CACHE_GUARD=1 CODEWHALE_CACHE_GUARD_STRICT=1 cargo test --test cache_guard

The mock simulates DeepSeek's server-side prefix cache behavior
using byte-prefix matching. The default threshold (40%) is calibrated
for the mock; real CI should use CODEWHALE_CACHE_GUARD_THRESHOLD=90
for production-quality validation.

9 tests covering:
- 8 multi-turn conversation scenarios
- 1 compaction behavior verification
