Improve code quality: Replace instanceof with polymorphism and extract constants

Major improvements:
1. Replace instanceof checks with polymorphic methods in VSAbstractEvent hierarchy
   - Added isInternalEvent(), isMessageReceiveEvent(), etc. methods
   - Added getEventPriority() for clean event ordering
   - Added shouldIncreaseTimestamps() to control timestamp behavior
   - Refactored VSTask to use these polymorphic methods

2. Extract magic numbers and strings to constants
   - Created VSConstants class for centralized configuration values
   - Added event priority constants (PRIORITY_HIGHEST, PRIORITY_HIGH, etc.)
   - Extracted string constants like CLASS_PREFIX
   - Moved magic numbers to named constants (PERCENTAGE_RANGE, etc.)

3. Update tests to work with new polymorphic approach
   - Fixed mocking in VSTaskTest to return correct values
   - All 132 tests passing

These changes improve maintainability, reduce coupling, and make the codebase
more self-documenting. The polymorphic approach eliminates type checking and
makes it easier to add new event types.
