🤖 Consolidate best practices: hooks, constants, and cleanup

- Add useClipboard hook to eliminate duplicate clipboard logic (~30 LoC saved)
  - Supports custom clipboard functions for testing
  - Consistent copy feedback across 4+ components
- Add timing constants to eliminate magic numbers
  - COPY_FEEDBACK_DURATION, TOOLTIP_LEAVE_DELAY, etc.
  - Replaces 17+ hardcoded timeouts
- Remove unused shadcn button component (~50 LoC)
- Replace hardcoded colors with CSS variables
  - BashToolCall: --color-success/--color-error for exit codes
  - FileEditToolCall, ProposePlanToolCall, ThinkingSlider: --color-muted
  - Add --color-success to globals.css

Total: ~80 LoC removed, improved maintainability
