fix(tools): prefer memory_search over search_code for user-provided facts (#2475) (#2490)
Two-part fix: update tool descriptions to disambiguate code search from memory recall, and inject a session-level hint into the volatile system prompt block when memory_save was called in the current session. Also fixes pre-existing clippy warnings in zeph-mcp, zeph-llm, and zeph-orchestration (Default::default() trait access, similar binding names, unnecessary map_or, strict float comparison).
