Description
### Describe the feature or problem you'd like to solve
With the upcomming https://github.blog/news-insights/company-news/github-copilot-is-moving-to-usage-based-billing/ it becomes important to see what consumes tokens (and how much).
### Proposed solution
When I close copilot it shows for example
> Tokens ↑ 275.8k • ↓ 3.5k • 219.4k (cached)
but during a session there is no way to know how many was consumed, neither `/session show`, the status-bar or the summary includes any direct indication.
It would be good to show token information in the status bar, and the session should show the complete summary of *all* interactions for this session - currently the summary at the end resets after resuming a session so there is no way to know how expensive a given session over a long run was.
At best there would be even a `/session stats` that shows what action has taken what tokes, e.g. MCP server interactions, file changes, "thinking" and so on.
