## Why

Compaction rewrites the conversation context that future model turns
receive, but hooks currently have no deterministic lifecycle point
around that rewrite. This adds compact lifecycle hooks so users can
audit manual and automatic compaction, surface hook messages in the UI,
and run post-compaction follow-up without overloading tool or prompt
hooks.

## What Changed

- Added `PreCompact` and `PostCompact` hook events across hook config,
discovery, dispatch, generated schemas, app-server notifications,
analytics, and TUI hook rendering.
- Added trigger matching for compact hooks with the documented `manual`
and `auto` matcher values.
- Wired `PreCompact` before both local and remote compaction, and
`PostCompact` after successful local or remote compaction.
- Kept compact hook command input to lifecycle metadata: session id,
Codex turn id, transcript path, cwd, hook event name, model, and
trigger.
- Made compact stdout handling consistent with other hooks: plain stdout
is ignored as debug output, while malformed JSON-looking stdout is
reported as failed hook output.
- Added integration coverage for compact hook dispatch, trigger
matching, post-compact execution, and the audited behavior that
`decision:"block"` does not block compaction.

## Out of Scope

- Hook-specific compaction blocking is not implemented;
`decision:"block"` and exit-code-2 blocking semantics are intentionally
unsupported for `PreCompact`.
- Custom compaction instructions are not exposed to compact hooks in
this PR.
- Compact summaries, summary character counts, and summary previews are
not exposed to compact hooks in this PR.

## Verification

- `cargo test -p codex-hooks`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
manual_pre_compact_block_decision_does_not_block_compaction`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server hooks_list`
- `cargo test -p codex-core config_schema_matches_fixture`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui hooks_browser`

## Docs

The developer documentation for Codex hooks should be updated alongside
this feature to document `PreCompact` and `PostCompact`, the
`manual`/`auto` matcher values, and the compact hook payload fields.
