Mistune 3 parser refactor + CI tooling

[philippb]

Goal

Upgrade to the Mistune 3 parser stack while preserving master behavior for structure diff output.

What Changed

• Refactored parser internals for Mistune 3 token APIs while keeping public sdiff behavior stable.
• Fixed inline token buffering regression (links/images/markers/linebreaks) that could duplicate rendered text.
• Restored legacy-compatible parsing semantics for key markdown edge cases.
• Added/expanded parser and compatibility-focused tests.
• Aligned lint configuration with branch CI expectations.
• Added coverage-focused tests to satisfy repository coverage gate.

Validation

• make test passes on refactor/mistune3-api.
• python -m flake8 --config .flake8 sdiff tests passes.
• python -m coverage report -m passes with total coverage above fail_under=96.

Compatibility Notes

• Objective is behavioral compatibility with master for structure diff, not markdown auto-formatting.
• Any behavior differences intended as improvements should be called out explicitly before expectation changes.

Compatibility audit result: do not merge this revision.

I compared master at 12e7782208e4b458c8c4242882fda2377d9cba6b with this PR at ada6821b16f56c20490e8d2f44879c75d902cad3 in isolated Python 3.11.13 environments.

• Baseline suite: 53/53 passed.
• PR suite: 150/150 passed.
• Direct black-box comparator: 23,185 identical public calls per environment across 1,149 texts and 21 unique pairs (33 recorded pair provenances).
• Corpus: existing fixtures and test literals, README examples, curated Markdown/Zendesk/error boundaries, and deterministic block combinations.
• Result: 11,462 exact signature mismatches. One is nondeterministic inspect.signature output; 11,461 are behavioral mismatches in parse trees, rendered bytes, diffs, extension behavior, or errors.

Representative differences:

input:    hello\nworld
baseline: hello\nworld
PR:       hello world

fenced-code rendering:
baseline: ```\ncode\n```
PR:       ``` code ```

MdParser().parse(None):
baseline: AttributeError("'NoneType' object has no attribute 'rstrip'")
PR:       []

Other reproduced changes include thematic breaks disappearing, autolink escaping changing, link-title quote normalization, legacy fixture byte changes, and reference definitions inside lists moving into the list item.

Compatibility confidence is 2/10, below the required 9/10 merge bar. The smallest next step is to define which legacy outputs are contractual versus explicitly approved improvements, retain a reduced dual-environment comparator as a regression gate, fix or adapt each unapproved mismatch class, and rerun the same exact comparison on the current base. I am leaving this PR open and unmerged.
