Simplify memory sample to use session state (#4085)

- Rename UserNameProvider → UserMemoryProvider
- Use session state (state dict) instead of instance variables
- Use context.extend_instructions() instead of context.instructions.append()
- Use DEFAULT_SOURCE_ID class attribute
- Fix imports to use public agent_framework API
- Add session state inspection at end of sample

-Context providers let you inject dynamic instructions and context into each
-agent invocation. This sample defines a simple provider that tracks the user's
-name and enriches every request with personalization instructions.
+Context providers inject dynamic context into each agent call. This sample
+shows a provider that stores the user's name in session state and personalizes
+responses — the name persists across turns via the session.
