Improve trace eraser history cleaning efficiency and reliability

Changes:
- Replace chained grep -v with single grep -Ev for efficiency
- Fix critical bug: history -w was overwriting cleaned file
- Use history -r instead of history -w to reload cleaned history
- Single-pass filtering instead of 5 separate grep processes
- Better user messaging about other terminal sessions

Technical improvements:
- Escaped regex metacharacters in pattern (git\.mull\.lol)
- Use 3988207 for unique temp file names
- More efficient: 1 process vs 5 processes

Tested:
✓ Removes all toolkit commands regardless of position
✓ Preserves normal commands
✓ No temp file errors
✓ History properly reloaded into memory
✓ 7 toolkit entries removed from 20-line test history
