Add comment list to read issue comments #19
Description
Context
Comments are write-only today: comment <ref> --body creates via commentCreate (src/linear.ts), but there is no way to read a thread.
Scope
- Add
comment list <ref>subcommand (dispatch pattern fromissueCommand's positional switch insrc/commands/issue.ts). - Query the
comments(issueId: $id)connection ordered newest-first; TOON list schema: author name, body truncated viatruncateForDisplay, relative time. - Definitive empty state + count line per AXI conventions; hints point to
comment <ref> --bodyto reply.
Acceptance
linear-axi comment list LIN-123renders the thread; a--full-style escape hatch disables truncation.

Schema correction found while implementing (PR #42): the
commentsroot connection has NOissueIdargument in the current schema (QueryCommentsArgsis only after/before/filter/first/includeArchived/last/orderBy). The thread is scoped viafilter: { issue: { id: { eq: } } }instead. Also relevant:Comment.useris nullable (integration/bot comments have no user — render falls back toexternalUser.displayName), and connections expose no sort-direction arg, so newest-first relies on Linear's fixed descending order (orderBy: createdAt).
