Large project memory files are now offloaded to a downloadable file instead of being pasted in full

What

When reading project memory files, content that stays under a certain size is still returned inline as before. Content that exceeds that size threshold is now written to a local file, and a pointer to that file (a local_file reference) is returned instead of embedding the full text directly.

Why

This keeps large remembered files from bloating the conversation context, since only a reference is included by default rather than the entire file's contents, following the same offload-to-file approach already used for other project uploads.
