Owen Lin 2793c826e8 Enable memories for paginated threads (#34386)
## Why

Paginated threads keep metadata updates in SQLite, while their rollout retains the initial `memory_mode`. Reconciliation could therefore overwrite the current setting with a stale value, and memory processing excluded these threads entirely.

## What changed

- Include paginated threads in stage 1 memory job selection and global memory output lookup.
- Preserve the SQLite `memory_mode` when reconciling or backfilling an existing paginated thread, while continuing to seed missing rows and restore legacy threads from rollouts.
- Omit `memory_mode` alongside Git metadata when flushing resumed paginated history.

## Testing

Added coverage for preserving disabled memory mode during reconciliation and backfill, selecting eligible paginated threads, and omitting initial metadata on paginated resume.

Thread Store

codex-thread-store is the storage boundary for Codex threads. It defines the ThreadStore trait plus local and in-memory implementations. Other storage implementations may live outside this repository.

Responsibilities

  • ThreadStore::append_items is the raw canonical history append API. It does not infer metadata from item contents.
  • ThreadStore::update_thread_metadata is the only thread metadata write API. It accepts a single literal metadata patch shape, regardless of whether the caller is applying a user/API mutation or facts derived above the store from appended history.
  • LiveThread is the preferred API for active session persistence. It owns a per-thread metadata sync helper, applies the rollout persistence policy, appends canonical history, and then sends metadata patches through ThreadStore::update_thread_metadata.
  • ThreadManager routes metadata mutations for loaded and cold threads through one entrypoint. Loaded threads use their LiveThread; cold threads go directly to the store.
  • LocalThreadStore persists history through codex-rollout JSONL files and persists queryable metadata through the SQLite state database when available. Local explicit metadata mutations also maintain JSONL/name-index compatibility so reading old or SQLite-less local storage keeps working.
  • RolloutRecorder is the local JSONL writer. It writes already-canonical items for ThreadStore::append_items; it no longer decides metadata updates for live thread-store appends.
  • core/session creates or resumes LiveThread handles and does not need to know whether persistence is backed by local files or another store.

Direction

New metadata observation semantics should live above ThreadStore. Stores persist explicit metadata fields, but raw history appends remain history-only.
