feat: add line filtering to decompile for context management

Browse Source 
Add start_line, end_line, and max_lines parameters to decompile
functions, allowing AI models to retrieve only specific portions
of decompiled code for better context management.

Parameters:
- start_line: Start at this line number (1-indexed)
- end_line: End at this line number (inclusive)
- max_lines: Maximum lines to return (overrides end_line)

Response includes filter metadata with total_lines when filtering
is applied, helping models understand what portion they're viewing.

Examples:
- Get first 20 lines: max_lines=20
- Get lines 10-30: start_line=10, end_line=30
- Get 15 lines from line 25: start_line=25, max_lines=15

If filtering is applied, includes a 'filter' object with total_lines and applied parameters.
