fix(mnemopi): make SQLite page-size alignment opt-in

Keep SQLite default behavior unless a page size is explicitly configured, and route file-backed Mnemopi databases through the shared opener.

- Stripped `<think>…</think>` reasoning blocks from remote LLM output in `cleanOutput`, so reasoning-model responses no longer leak into consolidated memories or corrupt fact extraction (the reasoning wrapper previously survived parsing and every stored fact became reasoning prose). ([#7231](https://github.com/can1357/oh-my-pi/issues/7231))
### Fixed
### Added
- Fixed SQLite databases being created with a hardcoded 4 KB page size regardless of the OS page size. On systems with larger pages (e.g. Apple Silicon / Asahi Linux at 16 KB), every SQLite page read touches 4 OS pages, causing 4x I/O amplification. Mnemopi now detects the OS page size at startup via `getconf PAGE_SIZE` and sets `PRAGMA page_size` before any tables are created, eliminating the write amplification on non-4K-page systems.
- Added opt-in SQLite page-size selection for file-backed databases. Set `MNEMOPI_DB_PAGE_SIZE` to a valid SQLite page size (a power of two from 512 to 65536) or `os`, or pass `pageSize` to `openDatabase`. The default remains SQLite's own page size because the virtual-memory page size does not establish storage-block behavior and larger WAL pages can increase sparse-write cost. Existing databases retain their page size.

Common environment fallbacks:

- `MNEMOPI_DB_PAGE_SIZE`: optional SQLite page size for new file-backed databases; use a valid power of two from 512 to 65536 or `os` to request the detected system page size. Unset preserves SQLite's default.
