Add comprehensive design document for enabling fresh Ralph iterations
to optionally read historical logs from previous iterations.

Key features proposed:

  • Three modes: off (default), smart (recommended), full
  • Log indexer to extract structured data from raw logs
  • LLM-based summarization using local qwen model
  • Token budget management to avoid context overflow
  • Relevance scoring to prioritize useful context

This addresses the issue where agents get stuck repeating failed
approaches because they lack visibility into what was already tried.

Inspired by @airesearch12's insight about Claude Code looking back
into logs containing complete context of past chat histories.
