feat(codexlens): add CodexLens code indexing platform with incremental updates

- Add CodexLens Python package with SQLite FTS5 search and tree-sitter parsing - Implement workspace-local index storage (.codexlens/ directory) - Add incremental update CLI command for efficient file-level index refresh - Integrate CodexLens with CCW tools (codex_lens action: update) - Add CodexLens Auto-Sync hook template for automatic index updates on file changes - Add CodexLens status card in CCW Dashboard CLI Manager with install/init buttons - Add server APIs: /api/codexlens/status, /api/codexlens/bootstrap, /api/codexlens/init 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
