Barrett Ruth 2e1ebdee03 feat(highlight): add treesitter context padding from disk
Problem: treesitter parses each diff hunk in isolation, so incomplete
syntax constructs at hunk boundaries (e.g., a function definition with
no body) produce ERROR nodes and drop captures.

Solution: read N lines from the on-disk file before/after each hunk and
prepend/append them as unmapped padding lines. The line_map guard in
highlight_treesitter skips extmarks for unmapped lines, so padding
provides syntax context without visual output. Controlled by
highlights.context (default 25, 0 to disable). Also applies to the vim
syntax fallback path via a leading_offset filter.
