docs: lpb-config runtime commands, lpb-memory origin, drift scope

- lpb-config: add show/models/set (runtime settings) + render to the
  reference (were missing)
- lpb-memory overview: agent-facing capabilities (session search,
  procedural skills, secret scanning), Origin & Status section
  (forked from Pi Hermes Memory, refactored for local/NPU, WIP)
- lpb-memory analysis: point-in-time snapshot banner
- release: .pi/skills/ out of docs drift (agent-internal, not published)

+| `lpb-config set model <id>` | Set the default model — validated against the live server's model list |

+Forked from [Pi Hermes Memory](https://github.com/chandra447/pi-hermes-memory)
+and extensively refactored to work fully locally: subprocess review transport
+that offloads background reviews to a small local model (NPU-friendly),
+model/thinking overrides for the review pass, serialized review spawning with
+backoff, and centralized configuration under `~/.pi/agent/`. It no longer
+tracks upstream and is developed as part of the
+[LocalPibox stack](https://github.com/lpb-stack/lpb-memory) — **still a work
+in progress**.
