SetThreadRetention existed and nothing called it, so the feature was
unreachable: a project could never opt in and every request carrying a thread
was refused.
A command rather than a configuration key, because it is a decision about data
rather than about deployment. Someone has to choose to keep what a team types,
and choosing it should look like an act rather than like a default nobody
read.
--retain-hours is required. Without a number the command would create exactly
the thing the design avoids: a conversation store with no expiry, holding
everything a team ever typed because nobody chose one.
