Patch description
Provide an option to ignore in-session memories when generating a dialogue response. An "in session memory" is any memory that is generated during the current dialogue session; a "session" is the life-cycle of the BB3 agent.

If set to True, only memories seeded in the first observation (with the correct Opening: prefix) will be used throughout a conversation.

Testing steps
Several added tests. Note: this depends on #4749 , so tests will fail until that is merged

Do we need to have this as a set? Why not relying on the memory deduplication algorithm we had before?

the set is just for quick O(1) checking in the get_available_memory function for memory utils

memory in list --> O(n)
memory in set --> O(1)

OK, I see. I thought you had that for deduplication. That makes sense.
