Subject: [PATCH] test: avoid disk-bound history limit fixtures

Use real in-memory SQLite for the remote-message ordering and active-task
retention query tests. Both exceeded the CI five-second limit while seeding
502 independently committed records on disk.

Keep the record counts, public database calls, and assertions unchanged.
Disk persistence, transactional migration, and reopen tests remain disk-backed.
Production database behavior is unchanged.
