Scott Idem 0ffcd57c95 fix: multi-user distillation + datetime in context + session log labels
Distillation was silently operating on scott/inara for all users due to
ContextVar defaults. All three distill endpoints now require ?user=&persona=
query params and validate them via persona.validate(). Memory distiller
signatures changed from Optional to required positional args — no more
global settings fallback. Scheduler now iterates all users/personas instead
of hardcoding the primary user.

- context_loader: inject current date/time as first system prompt section
- session_logger: use get_user()/get_persona() from context instead of
  settings globals so Holly/Brian sessions show correct speaker labels
- memory_distiller: system prompts now reference u.title()/p.title()
  instead of settings.user_name/settings.agent_name
- distill router: Query(...) enforces params; _resolve() validates persona
- scheduler: _all_personas() helper iterates every user/persona for distill
- app.js: runDistill() now appends ?user=&persona= via _fileParams
