Merge pull request 'Bug: a transient complaint is stored as a durable fact at confidence 1.00' (#132) from task/481-bug-a-transient-complaint-is-stored-as-a into master

"сеть какая-то медленная" and "интернет не работает" were written as `self`
rows at confidence 1.00. Recall reads a self row back later as if it were
still true, and that is the class of row that outranked live search in #470 —
so a slow afternoon becomes a standing belief about his network.

IsTransientComplaint is the same shape as IsQuestionShaped: deterministic,
offline, and off by default in the two cases where losing a real capture would
cost more than keeping a complaint. An explicit "запомни ..." wins, because he
asked. A first-person marker wins, because "я сломал руку" is durable and the
test is meant for sentences about things.

She answers the turn as chat instead of storing it. actionChat now has the
same nil-phraser floor the other model callers have.

The second defect filed here — a reply body of literally "{" — was closed by
the errBrokenJSON path in V-397 and needs nothing further.

 Router contract: `[{"intent":<enum>, key?, value?, text?, verb?}, ...]` over

+#### A restart expires a parked question
+
+Decided 2026-08-04 (Vikunja #385). The follow-up dialogue session survives a
+restart; the clarify question parked behind it does not, and neither do the
+three yes/no confirms in `voice.go`. `ClarifyStore` stays in memory.
+
+Three reasons, in the order they settle it:
+
+- The clock stops meaning anything. A parked question carries a 90s TTL and an
+  attempt count. A restart is a gap of unknown length, so a restored question is
+  either already dead or pretending to be young.
+- Restoring the question restores the request behind it. He asked for something,
+  she asked back, and then the daemon went away. Acting on that minutes later,
+  against words he has probably given up on, is the misroute the stage 3 gate
+  exists to avoid.
+- She does not announce it either. The expiry notice needs to know a question
+  was parked, and knowing that across a restart means storing it. One sentence,
+  in the rare window where he speaks within 90s of a restart, does not pay for a
+  marker that outlives the thing it describes. His next words route fresh, which
+  is the correct answer with or without the notice.
+
+So the notice stays what it is: the in-process TTL case, where she really did
+wait and really did let go.
