test: add 22 tests for readStdinJson, evaluate-session config, and suggest-compact hook

- utils.test.js: 5 tests for readStdinJson maxSize truncation, whitespace-only stdin, trailing whitespace, and BOM prefix handling
- evaluate-session.test.js: 4 tests for config file parsing, assistant-only transcripts, malformed JSON lines, and empty stdin
- suggest-compact.test.js: 13 new tests covering counter file creation/increment, threshold suggestion, interval suggestion, env var handling, corrupted/empty counter files, and session isolation
