feat(cli): add sentry cli defaults command for persistent settings

Implement a command to view and manage persistent CLI defaults: organization,
project, telemetry preference, and Sentry URL (for self-hosted instances).

- Consolidate storage from the unused `defaults` single-row table to the
  `metadata` KV table (migration 13 copies any data, then drops the table)
- Add `parseBoolValue()` utility for human-friendly boolean parsing (on/off,
  yes/no, true/false, 1/0) adapted from Sentry JS SDK's `envToBool`
- Add persistent telemetry opt-out with priority chain:
  SENTRY_CLI_NO_TELEMETRY > DO_NOT_TRACK > SQLite preference > default (on)
- Add persistent URL default applied in `preloadProjectContext()` after
  `.sentryclirc` env shim, using the same `env.SENTRY_URL` mechanism
- Property-based tests for parseBoolValue, unit tests for defaults storage
  and isTelemetryEnabled priority chain

Closes #304
