Add extensibility hooks to daily memory archive

[chubes4]

Summary

• Adds datamachine_daily_memory_pre_archive filter so developers can intercept archived content and handle storage themselves (WordPress pages, external APIs, etc.)
• Adds datamachine_daily_memory_archived action that fires after archive processing, regardless of how storage was handled

Why

The daily memory task currently writes archived content exclusively to flat markdown files (daily/YYYY/MM/DD.md). This works great as the default, but developers building on top of Data Machine may want to store archived knowledge differently — as WordPress content, in a database, or via an external service.

These hooks let them do that without modifying the core task. If datamachine_daily_memory_pre_archive returns true, the flat-file write is skipped entirely. If nothing hooks it, behavior is 100% unchanged.

Example usage

// Store archived memory as a WordPress page instead of a flat file.
add_filter( 'datamachine_daily_memory_pre_archive', function ( $handled, $content, $date, $context ) {
    wp_insert_post( array(
        'post_type'    => 'page',
        'post_title'   => 'Daily Knowledge — ' . $date,
        'post_content' => $content,
        'post_status'  => 'private',
        'post_date'    => $date . ' 00:00:00',
    ) );
    return true; // Skip flat-file write.
}, 10, 4 );

// Log archive events without changing storage.
add_action( 'datamachine_daily_memory_archived', function ( $content, $date, $handled, $context ) {
    error_log( sprintf( 'Daily memory archived for %s (%d bytes, handled: %s)', $date, $context['archived_size'], $handled ? 'yes' : 'no' ) );
}, 10, 4 );

Changes

One file: inc/Engine/AI/System/Tasks/DailyMemoryTask.php

• Extract $archive_context array to avoid duplication between filter and action
• Add datamachine_daily_memory_pre_archive filter before the flat-file write
• Wrap existing flat-file write in if ( ! $handled ) conditional
• Add datamachine_daily_memory_archived action after processing
• Full PHPDoc with @since 0.46.0 tags on both hooks
