Refactor: Address high-priority code quality issues in charset validation

**Code Quality Improvements:**
- **FIXED DRY Violation**: Extracted duplicated invalid byte detection logic
  to reusable `formatInvalidByteForError()` helper function (22 lines → 1 function)
- **ELIMINATED Circular Dependency**: Replaced string parsing in insert.go with
  structured `GetCharsetErrorInvalidByte()` approach
- **ADDED Constants**: Replaced magic numbers with named constants
  - 127 → `asciiMax`
  - "\\x%02X" → `invalidByteFormat`
  - "\\x00" → `fallbackInvalidByte`

**MySQL Compatibility Verified:**
- ✅ MySQL: `ERROR 1366: Incorrect string value: '\xAE' for column 'name' at row 1`
- ✅ Dolt:  `error: Incorrect string value: '\xAE' for column 'name' at row 1`
- ✅ **PERFECT MATCH** (excluding error code per CLAUDE.md requirements)

**Testing:**
- All existing charset validation tests pass
- Behavior identical to MySQL comparison server
- No functional changes, only code structure improvements
