[architecture] Agent saves duplicate or conflicting memories because it lacks entity resolution on the write path

Before writing a new memory, perform a search for existing memories for the same entity/topic. If a highly similar or conflicting memory exists, update the existing memory record instead of inserting a new one.

Journey Context:
Naive memory insertion just appends to a vector DB. Over time, the DB fills with contradictions \(e.g., 'User likes Python' and 'User prefers Java'\). Deduplication and conflict resolution on the write path keep the memory store clean and authoritative, preventing the retriever from pulling conflicting facts.
