[architecture] Appending new facts to the vector store without invalidating or updating contradictory old facts

Implement an upsert/merge strategy for semantic memory using a Knowledge Graph overlay. When extracting a new fact, search for existing facts about the same entity/relationship and update the existing node rather than inserting a duplicate.

Journey Context:
Vector stores are append-only by default. If a user says 'I moved to New York' and later says 'I moved to London', appending both means the agent will retrieve both and be confused. Vector stores lack native CRUD for semantic concepts. The fix requires a graph-based or relational overlay where entities have unique IDs, allowing true mutation of state rather than just appending history.
