Implement adaptive ID length scaling (bd-ea2a13)

- Start with 4-char IDs for small databases (0-500 issues)
- Scale to 5-char at 500-1500 issues, 6-char at 1500+
- Configurable via max_collision_prob, min/max_hash_length
- Birthday paradox math ensures collision probability stays under threshold
- Comprehensive tests and documentation
- Collision calculator tool for analysis

Also filed bd-aa744b to remove sequential ID code path.
