Show context window usage as absolute tokens (e.g. 112k / 1M), not only as a percentage. #14629

Describe the solution you'd like?

Wherever Warp surfaces agent context usage, prefer used/total. Percentage can stay as a secondary value (or even default) if useful.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I use absolute counts to decide when to compact or hand off.

Models don't degrade off "% of window used," they degrade off total tokens in context. Same model at 112k used has degraded to same quality whether total window is 272k or 1M; relative UI reads those as wildly different (i.e. ~41% vs ~11%).
