This change improves information density by using Base36 (0-9, a-z) instead
of hex (0-9, a-f) for hash-based issue IDs. Key benefits:
- Shorter IDs: Can now use 3-char IDs (was 4-char minimum)
- Better scaling: 3 chars good for ~160 issues, 4 chars for ~980 issues
- Case-insensitive: Maintains excellent CLI usability
- Backward compatible: Old hex IDs continue to work
Changes:
- Implemented Base36 encoding with proper truncation (keep LSB)
- Updated adaptive length thresholds (3-8 chars instead of 4-8)
- Fixed collision probability math to match encoding (was calculating
for base36 but encoding in hex - now both use base36)
- Fixed ID parser bug (use prefixWithHyphen for substring matching)
- Updated all tests and test data patterns
