fix(memory): write meta before JSONL rewrite for crash safety

Browse source 
In SetHistory and Compact, the JSONL file was rewritten before updating
the meta file. If the process crashed between the two writes, the meta
still had a large Skip value pointing past the now-shorter JSONL file,
causing GetHistory to return empty — effectively data loss.

Reverse the order: write meta (with Skip=0) first, then rewrite JSONL.
On crash between the two writes, the old uncompacted file is still
intact and GetHistory reads from line 1, returning stale-but-complete
data. The next operation self-corrects.
