[architecture] Agent memory grows unbounded leading to retrieval noise and high latency

Implement explicit memory consolidation and forgetting. Periodically summarize or delete redundant/obsolete memories instead of just appending, using entity resolution to merge duplicates.

Journey Context:
Append-only memory logs cause the vector store to return duplicate or conflicting facts over time, increasing latency and cost. Humans forget; agents must too. Tradeoff: Summarization might lose granular details. Alternative: strict deduplication via entity resolution before writing, which preserves details but requires more compute at write time.
