feat(memory): add an opt-in Qoder CLI memory toggle (#73)

* feat(memory): add an opt-in Qoder CLI memory toggle

Settings → Safety gains a Memory switch, off by default. When enabled,
query options request CLI-native memory so the CLI saves and reloads
reusable information across conversations from its shared memory store;
toggling the switch restarts the running session once.

* refactor(settings): move the memory toggle into the experimental group

Memory is still settling in as a Qoder CLI feature, so it belongs with the
other experimental switch instead of the safety group.
