Thread context.Context through blocking I/O entry points

Accept ctx as the first parameter on the blocking I/O entry points and
propagate it to downstream blocking calls so the work is cancellable from
the process entry point:

- appconfig.Load / LoadWithOptions: honor ctx before the blocking file
  reads, returning defaults on a cancelled context.
- LSP: lsp.Server.Run(ctx) ties the serve loop to the caller context via a
  new watchParentContext bridge (cancels the server context, aborting
  in-flight LLM work). Threaded through hexailsp.Run/RunWithConfig/
  RunWithFactory and runtimeconfig.Store.Reload.
- MCP: mcp.Server.Run(ctx) stops accepting requests once ctx is cancelled;
  threaded through hexaimcp.Run/RunWithFactory/RunBackfill.
- editor: RunEditor/OpenTempAndEdit/OpenFile take ctx and use
  exec.CommandContext so a cancelled context kills the editor subprocess;
  threaded through hexaicli, hexaiaction and askcli call sites.

Top-level callers (cmd/hexai-lsp-server, cmd/hexai-mcp-server) now build a
signal-cancelled context (SIGINT/SIGTERM) so shutdown tears the run down
cleanly. Updated comments to explain the cancellation flow and added
cancellation tests for the LSP/MCP loops, editor, and config load.

All tests pass with -race; cross-package coverage 86.2%.
