feat: add "Current Date:" label to timestamp prefix

Browse Source 
Changes [Wed 2026-01-28 20:30 EST] to [Current Date: Wed 2026-01-28 20:30 EST].

Tested with qwen3-1.7B: even with DOW in the timestamp, the model
ignored it and tried to compute the day using Zeller's Congruence.
The "Current Date:" semantic label is widely present in training data
and gives small models the best chance of recognizing the timestamp
as authoritative context rather than metadata to parse.

Cost: ~18 tokens per message. Prevents hallucination spirals that
burn hundreds or thousands of tokens on date derivation.
