chopratejas 83c0334ccd docs: update documentation for IntelligentContext TOIN + CCR integration
Updates across multiple docs to reflect the new message-level compression
with TOIN + CCR integration:

- docs/ccr.md: Add CCR-enabled components table, message-level CCR section
- docs/ARCHITECTURE.md: Expand Transform 6 with TOIN + CCR integration details
- docs/configuration.md: Add CCR integration config and marker format
- docs/proxy.md: Add CCR integration note for context management
- docs/README.md: Update to reference IntelligentContextManager as default

Also adds examples/test_intelligent_context_toin_ccr.py for scale testing
the TOIN + CCR integration with real API calls.

## Overview
Headroom is the Context Optimization Layer for LLM applications. It reduces your LLM costs by 50-90% through intelligent context compression.
### How It Works
1. **Universal Compression** — ML-based content detection with structure-preserving compression
2. **SmartCrusher** — Compresses JSON tool outputs, keeping errors, anomalies, and relevant items
3. **CacheAligner** — Stabilizes message prefixes so provider caching works
4. **IntelligentContextManager** — Score-based context dropping using TOIN-learned importance (default)
5. **CCR** — Caches original data so compression is reversible
### Safety Guarantees
- Never removes human content
- Never breaks tool call ordering
- Parse failures pass through unchanged
- LLM can always retrieve original data
