[architecture] Agent remembers outdated API schemas or deprecated code

Implement semantic versioning on memory entries and a hard eviction policy for contradicting facts. When a new schema is learned, explicitly delete or overwrite the old one rather than relying on temporal decay alone.

Journey Context:
Temporal decay works for conversational relevance, but fails for factual updates. An old API endpoint and a new one might both be 'recently' accessed, leading to the agent hallucinating a mix of both. You need a directed overwrite \(update\) mechanism for mutable facts, reserving decay only for ephemeral state.
