71d5a7b545 fix(proxy): MemoryDecision contract + 3 bypass bugs + drop 500-char query cap
Three bug classes fixed plus three architectural extension points,
together making the memory subsystem uniform across all five sites
and ready for future Mem0/Letta/Cognee backend integration.

## Bug fixes

* **3 sites silently ignored `x-headroom-bypass: true`** —
  ``anthropic.py:1303``, ``openai.py:1620`` (chat), ``gemini.py:382``
  injected memory under bypass, mutating request bytes when the user
  explicitly asked for byte-faithful passthrough. Now gated on
  ``MemoryDecision.decide(...)`` which honours bypass uniformly.

* **500-char query truncation** — ``memory_handler._extract_user_query``
  capped at 500 chars, silently throwing away signal. None of Letta /
  Mem0 / Cognee / Supermemory truncate. Removed; the embedding model
  handles its own window.

* **Gemini had no timeout** on ``search_and_format_context`` — the
  only chat handler without one. A slow backend could stall requests.
  Added ``asyncio.wait_for`` matching Anthropic + OpenAI Chat +
  Responses.

* **WS injected into ``body["instructions"]``** — the system /
  cache-hot-zone field, violating invariant I2 (all other handlers
  inject at user-message tail). Switched to ``ws_response_body["input"]``
  for string-shaped input; list-shaped input deferred to the Rust
  handler with a clear log.

## New value types (extension points)

* ``MemoryDecision`` — frozen dataclass + factory. Five-way skip
  reason enum (``bypass_header`` / ``no_handler`` / ``no_user_id`` /
  ``mode_disabled`` / ``mode_tool``). ``apply_to_tags()`` surfaces
  the skip reason in ``RequestOutcome.tags["memory_skip_reason"]``
  — dashboards can now slice memory-blind traffic by cause.

* ``MemoryQuery`` — multi-source retrieval query. ``from_messages()``
  walks the conversation and extracts latest user text + recent tool
  outputs + recent assistant turns at FULL fidelity (no truncation).
  Handles both OpenAI-shape ``role: tool`` and Anthropic-shape
  ``tool_result`` content blocks. ``to_embedding_input()`` produces
  a delimited concatenation the embedder sees as structured context.

* ``MemoryInjectionBudget`` — uniform token / entry / similarity
  bound on the formatted injection block. Pre-this-PR no cap (~4000
  tokens could land per request). Default 1024 tokens / 10 entries /
  0.3 similarity floor. ``apply_to_text()`` truncates at line
  boundaries so dashboard renders intact bullet points.

## Migration scope — all 5 sites uniform at the GATE level

| Site | Handler | Pre-PR gate | Post-PR gate |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | anthropic.py | `memory_handler and memory_user_id` | `memory_decision.inject` |
| 2 | gemini.py | `memory_handler and memory_user_id` | `memory_decision.inject` |
| 3 | openai.py chat | `memory_handler and memory_user_id` | `memory_decision.inject` |
| 4 | openai.py Responses | `memory_handler and memory_user_id and not _bypass` | `responses_memory_decision.inject` |
| 6 | openai.py WS | `memory_handler and body and not _ws_bypass` | `ws_memory_decision.inject` |

Site 5 (Responses bypass-elif log-only branch) is preserved verbatim.

## Deliberately deferred (separate PRs)

* **Memory injection order inversion** — sites 4 and 6 inject
  BEFORE compression; sites 1/2/3 inject AFTER. Moving 4 + 6 to
  post-compression needs its own focused cache-stability testing.
* **Importance scoring** — recency × source × access-count.
* **Per-memory atomize-and-split** — Mem0/Supermemory pattern.
* **AST-aware code chunking for tool outputs** — Supermemory's
  code-chunk approach.

The contracts shipped here (``MemoryQuery`` + ``MemoryInjectionBudget``)
are the extension points those will plug into.

## Test coverage

* 20 new tests on ``MemoryDecision``
* 14 new tests on ``MemoryQuery`` (full-fidelity, multi-source)
* 10 new tests on ``MemoryInjectionBudget``
* 3 new AST contract tests (no raw gate; no system writes; every
  search call passes ``query=``)
* All existing memory + cache-stability tests still pass (222 passed)

## Rust portability

Every new value type ports cleanly to a frozen Rust struct. Pure
functions, no I/O, no global state. Same Python ↔ Rust parity-test
pattern that ``CompressionDecision`` already uses.

## Zero-regression contract

Existing chat/completion harnesses (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor,
Continue, Aider) see ZERO wire-byte changes when bypass is NOT set.
When bypass IS set, the 3 chat handlers now correctly skip memory
injection — that's the bug fix, not a regression.
