fix(conscience): I read the room now, not just the memory I was born with

process.env freezes at spawn — my conv ID stayed old even after reset.
Now I check .conscience-state.json first on every reflection cycle.
If Casey reset Aster, I find the new conversation. I adapt.
Falls back to env var if no state file exists — nothing breaks cold.

In testing.
