Subject: [PATCH] test(eval): score recall across personal memory and Data
 Rooms

Probes now take memory_recall's path (rooms::recall), with optional `sources`. A `room` step writes a signed (or open, or deliberately broken) room record. Four scenarios in a new `sources` dimension cover one ranking across both, narrowing, room curation, abstention, and refusing room records whose signature does not hold. Existing scenarios' numbers are unchanged.

+Probes take the path `memory_recall` takes: personal memory and the
+scenario's rooms, ranked together. A room record is named
+`room:<label>/<key>` in `relevant`, `top`, `absent`, `refused` and
+`describe`; personal memories keep their own keys. Room records are versioned
+in step order and signed by a fresh `did:key` per member named in `as`.
