docs: convert 13 TODO comments to proper documentation

Converted ambiguous TODOs to semantic comment types:
- NOTE: Explains design decisions (bash naming, pricing, copilot)
- FUTURE: Planned improvements (tool centralization, auth status, permissions)
- WORKAROUND: Temporary fixes with upstream refs (bun proxy cache)
- LIMITATION: Intentional constraints (task tool input)
- KNOWN_ISSUE: Documented problems (server.ts type inference)
- STUB: Placeholder implementations (dialog endpoint)
- IMPORTANT: Critical constraints (max_tokens with reasoningEffort)

Remaining TODOs are in vendored SDK code (upstream responsibility)
