release: v1.8.0 — 8 enterprise-grade features

## New features

### Observability
- **Agent-specific operational metrics** (#811): AgentMetrics + AgentMetricsCollector
  with decision latency, retry breakdown, compound success rate tracking
- **Compound error rate tracking** (#806): StepOutcome + CompoundErrorTracker with
  per-step/compound success rates, model grouping, escalation detection
- **OpenTelemetry semantic conventions** (#815): ATTR_* and SPAN_* constants following
  GenAI SIG conventions, SpanAttributes builder with for_task/for_agent/for_gate/for_merge

### Security
- **Pluggable guardrail pipeline** (#812): Guardrail Protocol with 4 built-in guards
  (prompt injection, scope enforcement, cost budget, secret leak detection)

### Communication
- **Structured SSE event types** (#814): 14 typed events with JSON payloads for
  real-time task/agent/gate/cost streaming
- **Structured shared memory** (#808): Extended bulletin board with actor-aware
  tagging, confidence scoring, scope filtering, and confidence decay

### Memory
- **Structured memory layer** (#805): Episodic, semantic, and procedural memory
  types with source attribution, task-based querying, and importance decay

### Cost
- **Prompt caching** (#807): Cacheable prompt block splitting, CacheStats tracking,
  cost savings estimation (Anthropic's 90% cached input discount)

## Stats
- 174 new tests across 8 test files
- All existing tests pass (backward compatible)
- Ruff clean, formatted
