fix: handle stale plugin config that blocks OpenClaw CLI during reinstall

Browse Source 
OpenClaw's config validator rejects unrecognized keys and references to
uninstalled plugins, blocking ALL CLI commands including `plugins install`.
The installer now temporarily removes the stale claude-mem entry before
installing, then restores the saved plugin config (workerPort, observationFeed,
etc.) after successful installation.
