Enhance memory search functionality with timeline context retrieval (#151)

- Introduced optional timeline context retrieval step in memory search flow to provide users with better understanding of previous sessions.
- Updated SKILL.md to reflect new flow, including timeline context commands and usage scenarios.
- Refactored timeline retrieval commands in timeline-by-query.md and timeline.md to utilize new MCP tools for streamlined access.
- Implemented filtering logic in search-server.ts to respect depth_before and depth_after parameters when displaying timeline items.
- Improved response formatting to include filtered item counts and enhanced user guidance for timeline queries.
