feat: wire GJC-style line range selector into read_file tool

- Add selector field to ReadFileInput accepting GJC syntax (:50, :50-200, :50+150, :raw)
- Implement read_file_with_selector and read_file_in_workspace_with_selector
- Add apply_line_selector to parse and apply selectors to file contents
- Add truncation_footer field to ReadFileOutput for GJC-compatible output
- Add comprehensive tests for selector parsing and application through tool entry point

Selectors take precedence over offset/limit for backward compatibility.
Closes #3323
