copilot-swe-agent[bot] 8d7c8e7c4e feat(similarity): add embedding pipeline, debug endpoints, backfill task, and scalable similarity search
- Add embedding_model config setting (replaces hardcoded text-embedding-3-small)
- Add compute_document_embedding Celery task for ingestion-time embedding
- Chain embedding task into finalize_document_storage pipeline
- Add backfill_missing_embeddings periodic task (every 5 min) for legacy files
- Add debug API endpoints: embedding-status, compute-embedding, diagnostic/embeddings, diagnostic/compute-all-embeddings
- Refactor find_similar_documents to only use pre-computed embeddings (no lazy API calls)
- Use yield_per(500) and column-only queries for 100K+ scale
- Add embedding status indicator and recompute button in file detail UI

"""Find documents similar to the specified file.
Uses text embeddings generated from OCR-extracted text and cosine
similarity to rank documents by relevance. Similarity scores range
from 0 (completely different) to 1 (identical content).
Embeddings are generated on first access and cached for subsequent
