zuxin-oai 3fe365ad8a memories: tighten memory lookup guidance and citation requirements (#12635) ...

## Summary
- tighten the memory-use decision boundary so agents skip memory only
for clearly self-contained asks
- make the quick memory pass more explicit and bounded (including a
lightweight search budget)
- add structured `<memory_citation>` requirements and examples for final
replies
- clarify memory update guidance and end-state wording for memory lookup

## Why
The previous template was directionally correct, but still left room for
inconsistent memory lookup behavior and citation formatting. This change
makes the default behavior, quick-pass scope, and citation output
contract much more explicit.

## Testing
- not run (prompt/template text change only)
