feat(recall): temporal-precision improvements
Neuron Soul CI / build (pull_request) Has been cancelled

Fix critical float parsing bug in engram_score_node: str_replace('.','')
then str_to_int silently miscored single-decimal salience strings (0.9->9,
0.7->7, 1.0->1). Introduce parse_salience_100() which detects decimal
position and scales correctly (no decimal: *100; one decimal: *10;
two decimals: as-is).

Replace flat 30-day linear decay with tier-aware decay curves: Canonical
nodes use a 365-day window (foundational identity resists aging), Episodic
nodes use 90 days, Working/untiered keep the existing 30-day slope. Floor
stays at 10 for all tiers.

Use max(created_at, updated_at) as the recency reference so revised nodes
are not penalised for their original creation date.

Extend affective context windows from 72h/7d to 14 days across all three
paths (engram_compile, handle_chat, soul.el load_identity_context) so a
Friday crisis carries into Monday sessions and all paths present consistent
context. The 72h/7d split caused conflicting affective context between
soul.el (which loaded a 5-day-old crisis node) and chat.el (which excluded
it on subsequent turns).

Add salience evolution to mem_consolidate: strengthen top working-memory
nodes (recently recalled across sessions) and Canonical-tier nodes
(foundational identity must not decay to the floor). Previously consolidate
returned structural counts only with no salience changes.

Expand conversation window from 20 to 40 turns in both handle_chat and the
agentic history trim. Long technical sessions were losing early problem
framing at 10 user + 10 assistant pairs.

// mem_consolidate structural scan plus salience-evolution pass.
//
// Previously this only returned structural counts (scanned, total_nodes, total_edges)
// with no salience updates. No node salience ever changed based on recall frequency
// or time; foundational nodes decayed identically to ephemeral chat; frequently-recalled
// nodes were never promoted. This made consolidation a no-op.
//
// New behavior:
// (a) Strengthen frequently-activated nodes: nodes in the top working-memory list
// (engram_wm_top_json) are strengthened they have been recalled recently
// and deserve higher salience. Raises effective salience for nodes that prove
// relevant across multiple sessions.
// (b) Strengthen Canonical-tier nodes: identity and foundational nodes should not
// decay; each consolidation pass re-strengthens them so they resist the
// tier-aware decay curve without requiring active recall.
// (c) Structural counts are still returned for observability.
//
// Called by awareness_run() on the "consolidate" inbox action.
