feat(openclaw): label "Current time" as UTC in injected memory context (#1804)

Append ` UTC` to the `Current time -` header injected above recalled
memories. Without the label the LLM read the timestamp as local time and
made wrong recency judgments. This is the same fix that landed for the
Claude Code integration in #1568 — the OpenClaw integration was overlooked.

Closes #1789
