Subject: [PATCH] fix: also filter session_meta in /session switch restore path
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The original PR missed the third CLI restore path — the /session switch
command that loads history via get_messages_as_conversation() without
stripping session_meta entries.
