fix: read GOOSE_CONTEXT_LIMIT from config.yaml, not just env vars#7900

`ModelConfig::new_base()` read `GOOSE_CONTEXT_LIMIT` via `std::env::var()`, which only checks environment variables. Users who set the value in config.yaml (e.g. `GOOSE_CONTEXT_LIMIT: 1000000`) had it silently ignored for the lead model. Switch to `Config::global().get_param()` which checks environment variables first (preserving existing behaviour) then falls back to config.yaml. This matches how `GOOSE_MAX_TOKENS` is already read in the same file and how `GOOSE_CONTEXT_LIMIT` is read for the worker model in `init.rs`. Partially addresses block#7839 (Option B). Complements block#7888 which fixes predefined model priority (Option A).

This new branch only rejects GOOSE_CONTEXT_LIMIT == 0, so values from 1..4095 now pass when read via Config::global().get_param() (including env var overrides), whereas the previous code path enforced >= 4 * 1024 through validate_context_limit. That regression allows unrealistically small context windows that were previously blocked and can lead to immediate context-exceeded behavior in normal sessions. Reusing validate_context_limit (or preserving the same lower bound here) would keep the prior contract.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Problem
ModelConfig::new_base() reads GOOSE_CONTEXT_LIMIT via std::env::var(), which only checks environment variables. Users who set the value in config.yaml have it silently ignored for the lead model, even though the same key works for the worker model (which uses Config::global().get_param() in init.rs).
Fix
Switch to Config::global().get_param() which checks environment variables first (preserving existing behaviour) then falls back to config.yaml. This matches how GOOSE_MAX_TOKENS is already read in the same file and how GOOSE_CONTEXT_LIMIT is read for the worker model in init.rs.
Testing
All 16 model::tests pass.
Partially addresses #7839. Complements #7888.
