fix(nit): align CommitID field in vcs/types.go and document no-op in github/review.go

Add CommitID field to vcs.ReviewRequest so the commit anchor propagates
through the vcs.Client interface to platform adapters.

Changes:
- vcs/types.go: Add CommitID string field to ReviewRequest
- gitea/client.go: Add commitID parameter to PostReview, include in API payload
- gitea/adapter.go: Pass req.CommitID to underlying client
- github/review.go: Use req.CommitID as primary, fall back to comment-level
- cmd/review-bot/main.go: Set CommitID on ReviewRequest from pr.Head.SHA

Fixes #114
