* Make the sync checkpointer honor the unified database config
The sync checkpointer factory (`get_checkpointer` and `checkpointer_context`)
read only the legacy `checkpointer:` config section and fell back to
`InMemorySaver` when it was absent — it never consulted `database:`. The async
`make_checkpointer` factory and both sync/async Store providers already resolve
the unified `database:` section (legacy `checkpointer:` takes precedence,
otherwise `database:` drives the backend), so the sync checkpointer was the
lone outlier.
Consequence: with `database: {backend: sqlite|postgres}` and no legacy
`checkpointer:` section, the sync checkpointer silently returned `InMemorySaver`
while the Store — same process, same config — correctly persisted to
sqlite/postgres. Embedded callers (`DeerFlowClient`) and the TUI hit this: e.g.
the TUI writes `threads_meta` rows to sqlite (thread appears in the Web UI) but
its checkpoints went to memory and were lost on exit. This also contradicts
backend/AGENTS.md ("the unified `database` section selects the Gateway's
LangGraph checkpointer, LangGraph Store, and DeerFlow SQL repositories").
Mirror the sync Store provider: add `_resolve_checkpointer_config` /
`_get_checkpointer_config` (legacy precedence, else translate `database:` into
a CheckpointerConfig) and route both the singleton and the context manager
through them. The Gateway is unaffected — it uses the async path.
Adds a TestCheckpointerDatabaseConfig suite mirroring the Store's database
tests (singleton + context-manager honor `database:`, legacy precedence,
explicit-memory, missing-config fallback). The two `uses_database_config`
tests fail (return InMemorySaver) before the fix and pass after.
* Handle database=None in sync checkpointer resolution
The unified-config change made `checkpointer_context` / `get_checkpointer`
consult `app_config.database` when no legacy `checkpointer:` section is set.
`AppConfig.database` is always a `DatabaseConfig` in production, but the
existing regression test for issue #1016
(`test_checkpointer_none_fix.py::test_sync_checkpointer_context_returns_in_memory_saver_when_not_configured`)
mocks the app config with `database` left unset, exercising a `database=None`
path that now raised `ValueError: Unknown database backend`.
Mirror the async `make_checkpointer` factory, which already tolerates
`database=None` (falls back to memory), by treating a `None` database as the
memory backend in `_resolve_checkpointer_config`. Update the sync test to set
`mock_config.database = None`, matching its async sibling in the same file.
* Address review: mirror None-guard in store resolver, add sqlite coverage
