The deterministic `:Forge ci` buffer only exposed the initial run window, which made older branch history unreachable once the list exceeded the configured run limit. Add in-buffer paging so the deterministic surface can still reach older runs without falling back to picker-only workflow.

Problem
The deterministic
:Forge cibranch-history buffer stopped at the configured run limit, so older runs were unreachable without falling back to the interactive picker flow.Solution
Track the current history window in
forge.ci_history, fetch one extra run to detect older history, and add[c/]cpaging to shrink or expand the in-buffer run window while preserving the existing buffer and cursor. Update the docs and regression coverage for the new buffer paging behavior. Closes #482.
