/**
 * CJK-aware token estimation without external dependencies.
 *
 * The naive `length / 4` heuristic under-estimates CJK text by ~4x because
 * each Chinese/Japanese/Korean character is typically 1-2 tokens, not 0.25.
 * This function separates CJK characters from other text and applies
 * different ratios:
 *
 * - CJK characters: 1 char ≈ 1 token
 * - Other characters: 4 chars ≈ 1 token (2 for JSON/JSONL/JSONC)
 *
 * The estimate intentionally leans high for CJK (safe direction for limit
 * checks — better to reject than to let oversized content through).
