[dotnet-port-api] Port harness file memory provider

[github-actions]

Summary

Port the .NET FileMemoryProvider surface into Go by adding two new harness packages:

• agent/harness/filestore with public file-store primitives (FileStore, Entry, SearchResult, SearchMatch, LineEdit) plus an in-memory implementation for provider and test use.
• agent/harness/filememory with a session-scoped file-memory context provider, exported state/options types, file_memory_* tools, memory-index injection, and working-folder state initialization.

This was selected from upstream commit f19a129b55e8ea86624a93227954cf43a0890e8f (microsoft/agent-framework@f19a129) because it adds a user-facing capability and exported API surface that Go did not have. The PR also adds a small compiled example and updates the feature-comparison doc to reflect the new parity.

Ported .NET PRs

• .NET: [BREAKING] Graduate FileMemoryProvider agent-framework#7114 - Graduate FileMemoryProvider

Breaking Changes

No.

Tests and Examples

• Added package tests for agent/harness/filestore
• Added package tests for agent/harness/filememory
• Added examples/02-agents/agents/step23_file_memory
• Ran go test ./agent/harness/filestore ./agent/harness/filememory ./examples/02-agents/agents/step23_file_memory
• Ran go test ./...

Notes

• This PR intentionally keeps the port narrow: it adds the file-memory provider and the minimal public file-store abstractions it depends on, but does not also port the separate .NET file-access harness provider.
• Upstream file-editing helper work around .NET: [BREAKING] Add file editing tools and align FileAccess/FileMemory store API agent-framework#6807 informed the tool behavior, but that broader area was not ported separately here to keep the change reviewable.
• The in-memory file store is sufficient for the new provider and public API parity; filesystem-backed or remote store implementations can be added later without changing the provider surface.
