Teknium 8dcb2b6ada refactor(agent/providers): shared ProviderBase/CatalogProviderBase and provider_media; compact contract docs
- provider_base.py: ProviderBase (name/display_name/get_setup_schema) and
  CatalogProviderBase (default_model/list_models/is_available) replace the
  identical default-method bodies duplicated across 7 provider ABCs
- provider_media.py: one save_b64/save_bytes/save_url/cache_dir implementation
  behind image_gen_provider and video_gen_provider
- memory_manager.py: _each_provider fan-out helper replaces per-hook
  try/except loops; _signature_params/_has_var_kwargs unify signature probes
- image_routing.py: _resolve_inference_value shared by base_url/api_key
  resolution; _dict_or_empty/_clean_str/_custom_provider_entries helpers
- MemoryProvider/ContextEngine/TTS/browser/web/terminal-env ABC docstrings
  compacted to their invariants; method names and signatures unchanged

"""Abstract base class for pluggable context engines.
A context engine decides when and how conversation context is compacted near
the model's token limit, tracks token usage, and may expose tools. The
built-in ContextCompressor is the default; ``context.engine`` in config.yaml
selects a plugin engine (``plugins/context_engine/<name>/``). One engine is
active at a time.
Lifecycle: on_session_start() -> per API response update_from_response() ->
per turn should_compress() / compress() -> on_session_end() at real session
boundaries only (CLI exit, /reset, gateway expiry), never per-turn.
