[architecture] Storing raw conversation logs as memory chunks instead of extracted semantic facts

Implement a memory consolidation step that extracts structured semantic facts \(triples or key-value pairs\) from episodic interactions before saving to long-term memory.

Journey Context:
Storing raw chat logs in a vector DB seems easy but leads to terrible retrieval. If an agent needs to know a user's preference, retrieving a 500-token chunk of a conversation where they mentioned it once in passing is inefficient and noisy. Episodic memory \(what happened\) must be distilled into semantic memory \(what was learned\). The tradeoff is the cost of an extra LLM call for extraction, but it pays off massively in retrieval precision and reduced context pollution.
