Enable token usage to be reported in CLI for any session #2947
Description
Describe the feature or problem you'd like to solve

Token usage is a cost metric. Tracking token usage by session allows users to track their usage.
Example prompts or workflows
How many tokens have we used so far?
How many tokens have we used since the last time I asked this question? (e.g., Are we there yet?)

This should be resolved as of v1.0.64. The
/usageslash command reports token usage for the current session, and that release added a per-model breakdown of those totals. Note that it shows running session totals rather than a delta since you last asked. If that does not cover what you were after, comment with details and we will take another look.
