Implement clean context-based charset error handling with exact MySQL compatibility

This commit replaces the workaround approach with clean architecture that passes
column and row context through Go context to eliminate <unknown> placeholders in
charset validation error messages.

Key improvements:
- Context enhancement pattern for passing column/row information
- Eliminates error recreation workarounds and string parsing
- Perfect MySQL error format matching including ASCII/hex display
- Comprehensive test coverage for all charset validation scenarios
- Follows existing GMS error handling patterns exactly

Changes:
- Add context keys for column name and row number in sql/types/strings.go
- Update formatInvalidByteForError to show ASCII chars and hex bytes like MySQL
- Enhance insert.go to set context before Convert() calls
- Remove error recreation workaround code
- Update test expectations to match correct MySQL behavior
- Add comprehensive unit tests for mixed ASCII/invalid byte scenarios

Fixes charset validation to match MySQL behavior exactly while maintaining
clean architecture principles and zero breaking changes.
