kami dc7c72a3d7 Add background memory evaluation, off unless configured (#248)
Ships the real, local, testable part of the memory-evaluation plan
(docs/plans/03-memory-evaluation.md): Maven reads back her own recent
memory on a slow ticker, asks the resident model what it notices, and
records the confident answers as notes.

internal/memeval — not internal/memory/eval.go as the plan says, because
internal/store imports internal/memory for the vector backend and an
evaluator has to read store.Fact/Note/Nudge, which would close the
cycle. Evaluate() gathers RecentFacts/RecentNotes/RecentNudges, prompts
under a GBNF grammar bounded to three {observation, confidence,
suggested_action} objects, drops anything under min_confidence,
deduplicates against what earlier runs wrote, and writes the rest as
notes with source infer:memory-eval. /dash already renders notes with
their source, so the output is visible with no UI change.

cmd/mavend/memoryeval.go drives it on its own goroutine and ticker, not
on the 60s tick: an evaluation is a multi-second round-trip on the same
llama-server that answers voice turns, and it runs hourly at most. The
memory_eval config block is absent by default and absence means the
goroutine does not exist. No llama-server phraser also means no loop —
there is no template fallback, because a "memory evaluation" assembled
from templates is a fixed sentence pretending to be an observation.

What it deliberately cannot do, since this is the feature most likely to
turn Maven into a nag:

  - It cannot speak. No dispatcher reference, no channel, no nudge. An
    observation is a thought she wrote down and he reads on /dash.
    Announcing them is a separate decision with its own opt-in.
  - It cannot act. suggested_action is recorded as text and interpreted
    by nobody — no reminder, routine or fact is created from it.
  - It says nothing about an empty store: no memory means no LLM call,
    so there are no observations invented out of two facts.
  - Its own notes are excluded from the next evaluation's input, and are
    written with a nil embedding so they stay out of the recall pool.

The plan's remaining items (dispatching observations, an /eval IPC
method and trace view, RecentEvents) and the fact that output quality is
entirely unmeasured are written up at the bottom of the plan doc.

// mavend/memoryeval.go — the driver for background memory evaluation
// (Vikunja #248). The evaluator itself is pure-ish and lives in
// internal/memeval; this is the one impure part: a ticker, the store, and the
// resident model's base URL.
//
// It is its own goroutine and NOT a step on the main tick, deliberately. The
// tick runs every 60s and has a delivery deadline behind it; an evaluation is
// a multi-second LLM round-trip on the same llama-server that answers voice
// turns, and it happens hourly at most. Bolting it onto the tick would make
// every hour's tick the slow one for no benefit.
