feat: implement RFC-20 Phase 3 GC integration

Implements garbage collection (GC) with mark-and-sweep algorithm:
- Mark phase: recursively walks references from all variable values (global, not scoped)
- Sweep phase: deletes unmarked CAS nodes
- Schema preservation: schemas referenced by reachable nodes are preserved
- Bootstrap preservation: self-referencing meta-schema always preserved

New features:
- Core gc() function in packages/json-cas/src/gc.ts with GcStats interface
- Extended Store interface with listAll() and delete() methods
- CLI command: json-cas gc (outputs JSON stats)
- Comprehensive test suite with 16 test scenarios

Implements: #23
