Luong NGUYEN 513171332e fix: correct token calculation in context-usage hook example

The hook was converting total_chars to string before calculating tokens,
resulting in ~0 tokens reported. Fixed to calculate directly from char count.

- Remove unused estimate_tokens() function
- Calculate tokens as total_chars // 4 directly
- Archive fix-context-usage-hook change

Tasks: Fix Context Usage Hook Token Calculation

Implementation Tasks

1. Fix the bug in 06-hooks/README.md example

Update line 564 in the context-usage.py example: change estimate_tokens(str(total_chars)) to total_chars // 4
Remove the now-unused estimate_tokens() function from the example

2. Update user's local hook file

Fix ~/.claude/hooks/context-usage.py with the same correction

3. Verification

Test the hook by running Claude Code and confirming non-zero token count is displayed
Verify the percentage calculation is reasonable (should show usage increasing during conversation)

Acceptance Criteria

After Claude responds, the Stop hook displays a non-zero token estimate
The displayed percentage decreases as conversation grows
Example in README.md matches the corrected implementation
