What
Add SQLite FTS5-backed keyword retrieval and use BM25 as the lexical component in hybrid ranking.
Changes:
Closes #2
Dependency
Resolved: this branch has been rebased onto main after #21 merged, so FTS now includes the TTL schema and filters.
Why
The old keyword score only split on whitespace and counted overlap. FTS5 gives HotMem a credible local lexical retrieval layer while keeping the existing API response shape and SQLite-only architecture.
