Subject: [PATCH] fix(memory): auto-migrate Honcho users to memory provider
 plugin

When honcho.json or ~/.honcho/config.json exists but memory.provider
is not set, automatically set memory.provider: honcho in config.yaml
and activate the plugin. The plugin reads the same config files, so
all data and credentials are preserved. Zero user action needed.

Persists the migration to config.yaml so it only fires once. Prints
a one-line confirmation in non-quiet mode.
