[architecture] Single-pass vector retrieval missing connected concepts across documents

Implement iterative retrieval \(retrieve -> extract entities -> retrieve again\) or graph-based traversal instead of a single vector search.

Journey Context:
If a user asks 'What library did I use for the project I built with Sarah?', a single vector search for 'library Sarah project' often fails. You need to first retrieve 'Sarah project', find the project name, then retrieve 'library used for \[project name\]'. Tradeoff: More LLM calls and higher latency, but necessary for complex, multi-hop reasoning.
