rebuild_eras() re-digested EVERY month from scratch on every coherence pass,
including old months whose sessions never change — ~17 redundant 32B calls per pass
(a big slice of the ~40-min consolidation grind + MI50 heat). Now it compares each
month's current session count to the stored era and only rebuilds changed months
(force=True still does all). Report gains built/skipped counts.
test_era.py: builds all first pass, skips unchanged, rebuilds only a month that
gained a session, force rebuilds all. Suite 99 green, ruff clean.
(Profile rebuild re-reading all 851 sessions every pass is the bigger remaining
hog — separate, harder fix.)

Complete the consolidation pipeline: summaries -> profile + eras -> narrative.
- memory: eras table (per-month digests) + Era, summaries_by_month, store_era,
list_eras, recall_eras; narrative table + set/get_narrative
- lyra/era.py (lyra-era): groups session gists by the month the session occurred
(real timestamps) and map-reduces each month into a "what was happening" digest
- lyra/narrative.py (lyra-narrative): distills profile + recent eras into the
current arc/trends/callbacks ("remember when…", "you're trending toward…")
- chat.build_messages injects the narrative alongside the profile
Verified on the real corpus: 17 monthly eras (Dec 2024-Jun 2026) + a narrative
that surfaces specific callbacks (the $573 Hollywood session, 4 years sober).
