fix: address review feedback on PRReader implementation

- Add maxFileContentSize (10 MB) limit to decodeBase64Content to prevent
  resource exhaustion from oversized file content (security MINOR)
- Fix reversed NewClient arg order in TestGetFileContentAtRef_DotSegmentError
  (GPT MINOR + Sonnet NIT)
- Remove 'waiting' from mapCheckRunStatus conclusion cases since it is a
  status value not a conclusion, update comment (GPT NIT)
- Add TestDecodeBase64Content_SizeLimit test
