The in-memory test server carried over search attributes and header on continue-as-new but dropped the memo, so a workflow that sets a memo on continue-as-new could not read it back on the new run under the test environment even though it works against a real server. Set the memo on the ContinuedAsNew event attributes and on the new run start request, mirroring the existing search attribute handling, and extend ContinueAsNewTest to assert the memo is visible after continue-as-new. Closes temporalio#2863

What changed?
The in-memory test server carries over search attributes and the header on continue-as-new but drops the memo. As a result, a workflow that sets a memo on continue-as-new cannot read it back on the new run under the test environment, even though this works against a real server.
This sets the memo on the
ContinuedAsNewevent attributes (StateMachines) and on the new run's start request (TestWorkflowService), mirroring the existing search-attribute handling added in #2731.ContinueAsNewTestalready set a memo on each continue-as-new but never asserted it downstream; it now asserts the memo is visible on the runs that follow.Why?
Reported in #2863. We run the Java SDK in production and rely on memo continuity across continue-as-new; the test server behaving differently from the real server makes it impossible to cover that behavior in workflow tests.
Breaking changes?
No. Test-server only; behavior now matches the real server.
