Feature: Option to show global account usage in statusline

Feature Request
Current behavior:
The statusline shows session-level usage percentage (e.g., [3% session]), which tracks tokens used in the current CLI session.
Requested behavior:
Add an option to display global account usage percentage in the statusline instead of (or in addition to) session usage.
Rationale:
- The
/statuscommand already has access to global usage data (visible in the usage tab) - Users may find global account usage more relevant for tracking their overall consumption
- This would provide consistency between the statusline and what's shown on claude.ai/settings/usage
Suggested implementation:
A configuration option to choose between:
- Session usage (current default)
- Global/account usage
- Both
Thank you!
