perf(core): Eliminate redundant output tokenization by deriving total from file tokens
Replace the expensive full-output tokenization pass (~350ms for 3.8MB) with a computation derived from individual file token counts plus an estimated template overhead. Since the output is primarily composed of the same file contents that are already tokenized individually, the total output token count can be accurately computed as: sum(file_tokens) + overhead_chars × char_to_token_ratio. Key changes: - calculateMetrics: Always tokenize all files individually (not just top 50), then compute total output tokens from the sum of file tokens plus estimated template overhead. This eliminates the separate full-output tokenization pass that previously dominated metrics time. - outputGenerate/createRenderContext: Skip calculateFileLineCounts and calculateMarkdownDelimiter for non-markdown output styles (xml, json, plain). These functions scan all file contents but are only consumed by the markdown template and the skill generation path (which sets style to 'markdown'). - fileSearch/searchFiles: Run file search and empty-directory search globby calls in parallel instead of sequentially when includeEmptyDirectories is enabled. Benchmark results (repomix on its own repo, 998 files, 15 runs each): Before: 1572ms mean After: 1353ms mean Improvement: 219ms (13.9%) The output token count approximation has <0.04% variance from the previous chunk-based approach, which itself introduced similar boundary effects by splitting at arbitrary 200KB positions. https://claude.ai/code/session_01H56SP71cxhxE6CyQzUH6cc
