feat(minecraft): improve error handling and auto-craft intermediates...but it doesn't work very well

1. Wrap neuri tool invocations to catch ActionError and return as
   result strings instead of throwing. This allows the LLM to learn
   from tool failures during its reasoning phase.

2. Enhance craftRecipe to use the recipe planner for auto-crafting
   intermediate materials. If the bot has raw materials (e.g., logs)
   but not direct ingredients (e.g., planks), it will automatically
   craft the intermediates first.

3. Add memory note about the dual tool interface discovery (neuri
   native tool calls vs JSON actions through TaskExecutor) for future
   optimization work.
