Treat configured Headroom proxy as running when its /health endpoint
responds, even if local headroom CLI is not installed. Dashboard
Start/Stop stays limited to local loopback proxies while external
Docker sidecars can be enabled via HEADROOM_URL.
Closes#1948

Build on the optional Headroom Token Saver from Carmelo Campos
(PR: feat: add optional Headroom token saver). Add managed start/stop
of the local headroom proxy from the dashboard, install detection,
status probing, and a simplified Token Saver UI.
- detect headroom CLI + python>=3.10, probe proxy /health
- spawn/stop proxy as a detached, pid-tracked process
- /api/headroom/{status,start,stop} routes, gated local-only in dashboardGuard
- one-click Start/Stop Headroom modal, no manual config needed
- claude<->openai shape conversion for /v1/compress via 9router translators
Thanks to Carmelo Campos (@carmelogunsroses) for the original Headroom integration.
