feat(issue_graph): Add issue_graph tool for visualizing issue/PR relationships
Adds the issue_graph tool that provides a comprehensive view of issue and PR
relationships in a GitHub repository. This is designed to be the primary tool
for understanding project status, work hierarchy, and issue dependencies.

Key features:
- Focus parameter: Auto-shift focus to epic/batch parent issues
- Cross-repo support: Discover parent issues via GraphQL and sub-issues via REST
- Status extraction: Parse milestone due dates and status keywords from body/comments
- State reason: Show why issues/PRs are in their current state (completed, merged, etc.)
- Project info: Fetch project name and status for the focus node
- Issue Types: Detect GitHub's native Epic issue type for classification
- Tasklist items: Extract legacy markdown checkbox items from issue body

The tool returns a text-formatted graph showing:
- Node types: epic, batch, task, pr
- Full hierarchy across repositories
- Sub-issues and closes/fixes references
- Cross-references and related work
- Open/closed/merged state of all related items

Closes: #1510
