Redesign CLI header to be compact and informative #18715

Description

@keithguerin

The current Gemini CLI header is quite large and occupies significant terminal space. This issue tracks the redesign of the header into a more compact, 4-line layout that provides essential application and account details at a glance.

Requirements:

  • Compact layout with a 4-line ASCII icon on the left.
  • Side-by-side text block displaying CLI version, authentication email, and user tier.
  • Streamlined 'getting started' tips.
  • Enhanced shared UI components for better flexibility.
