feat: add Teleport API integration for global city coverage (200+ cities worldwide)

- New agent/tools/teleport_api.py with search_city_slug() and get_city_housing_data()
- Live calls to api.teleport.org /scores/ and /details/ endpoints (no auth required)
- In-memory slug cache with 60+ pre-seeded city→slug mappings
- Normalizes Teleport data to unified schema (ListPrice, MedianRentMonthly,
  AffordabilityScore, col_index, teleport_scores) compatible with ACTRIS structure
- HARDCODED_FALLBACK for 23 major cities when API is unreachable — never crashes
- Austin TX area detection routes callers back to real_estate.py (ACTRIS data)
- col_index derived from Teleport COL score for wealth_bridge calculations

+Teleport API integration — global city cost of living + housing data
+====================================================================
+Free API, no auth required. Covers 200+ cities worldwide.
+Base: https://api.teleport.org/api/
+
+Routing rule:
+  Austin TX area queries → use real_estate.py (ACTRIS MLS data)
+  All other cities worldwide → this module
+
+Two public functions registered as agent tools:
+  search_city_slug(city_name)        — find Teleport slug for a city
+  get_city_housing_data(city_name)   — full housing + COL data for any city
+
+Fallback: if Teleport API is unreachable, returns HARDCODED_FALLBACK data
+for 15 major cities. Never crashes — always returns something useful.
