Not possible to prompt memgpt to search a specific archival store when multiple have been attached

[dividor]

Describe the bug
I would like the bot to search different stores depending on the task. For example, I have a list of humanitarian disasters, and reports for each of them. If asked to list disasters for Oct 2023 I want it to just search the high-level list.

I have tried using the persona, even instructing directly to search a particular store. The debug shows the bot understands and will search the store, but looking at the results, it has not. This loses information as it also doesn't page through detailed reports archival memory to get the full list of disasters.

It almost seems as if the bot will only work with one single archival store.

Note, I tried this on pymemgpt and pymemgpt-nightly.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Unzip and untar this file to get the required data:
   data.tar.gz
2. memgpt load directory --name disasters_high_level_list --input-dir ./disasters --recursive
3. memgpt load directory --name detailed_disasters_report --input-dir ./docs_spr_prefix --recursive
4. memgpt add persona --name reliefweb_expert -f reliefweb_persona.txt
5. memgpt add human --name reliefweb_responder --text "You are an humanitarian responder monitoring the latest news and developments of humanitarian disasters. You want full information where possible, not summaries"
6. memgpt run --human reliefweb_responder --persona reliefweb_expert --first --agent reliefweb_agent --debug
7. /attach and attache the two strores detailed_disasters_report and disasters_high_level_list
8. Enter 'search archival store disasters_high_level_list for a list of disasters in Oct 2023'
9. Looking at the debug, you'll see the output below. Note the 'report' strings, that data is from archival store detailed_disasters_report

% memgpt run --human reliefweb_responder --persona reliefweb_expert --first --agent reliefweb_agent2 --debug

💭 I've found several disaster reports from October 2023. These include earthquake incidents in Afghanistan and a combination
of floods and landslides in India. Let's gather the key points and share this information with the user in a concise manner.
🤖 Here is a high-level overview of disasters occurred in October 2023: 

1. Afghanistan was affected by Earthquakes. The effective management of these disasters was attributed to early warning 
systems, robust surveillance, and coordinated responses. 

2. India experienced a combination of Floods and Landslides. The Dengue outbreak led to most deaths in Dhaka Medical College 
Hospital, followed by Faridpur, Khulna, and Sher-e-Bangla Medical College Hospitals. The Dengue related deaths were mainly 
among the 16-55 age group with a male to female death ratio of 43% to 57%. 

The 'Nationwide Dengue Prevention & Clean-up Week 2023' was launched with UNICEF support and ongoing vector surveillance and 
control measures were implemented. Please let me know if you want more detailed information about any of these incidents.

Expected behavior
If the bot has multiple stores and the user wants data from one particular store, we should be able to prompt the bot to search just that store.

I think we can support this is we add additional metadata into saved passages in archival (e.g. like in #294, which includes timestamps), and adding additional function call options for the agent to be able to write queries that filter by data sources. Once #339 is completed, we can start customizing the way archival queries are done.
