Dedent & normalize prompt API

Normalizes a prompt — strips common leading indentation, collapses runs of blank lines, trims trailing whitespace, normalizes line endings — and reports the token count before vs after plus tokens saved (cleaner prompts often cost less). Answers 'how do I clean up this indented prompt?', 'how many tokens can I save by normalizing whitespace?'.
