João Moura 456c67d7c2 fix(telemetry): record crew_memory as a string, not a bool (#7064)
This pipeline cannot carry a false boolean. Measured across 218,400,577 spans,
not one carries vBool=false - proto3 omits the bool zero value, so false is
never serialized and arrives as the key simply being absent. "Memory disabled"
was therefore structurally unrepresentable, and presence had to stand in for the
value, which is why crew_memory read 1 for 99.8% of crews against a field that
defaults to False.

The fix is the convention this file already documents and applies to `resumed`
and `conversational`; crew_memory is the attribute those comments name as the
outstanding case. It was the only remaining CrewAI-emitted boolean attribute -
checked empirically: every other attribute appearing in vBool comes from
third-party instrumentation.

Truthiness rather than `is True`, per the decision that memory counts as enabled
when set by any means: a Memory, MemoryScope or MemorySlice instance is enabled
just as much as `memory=True`. None of those classes defines __bool__ or __len__,
so an instance is always truthy.

Tests cover all four inputs - True, False, None and an instance - and reuse the
existing guard that no attribute is ever passed as a bare boolean. Verified they
fail against the unpatched emitter.
