bvandeusenandClaude Fable 5 0e70a3896b feat(embeddings): per-chunk rows — schema, write path, version-aware backfill (#280 steps 2+3)
note_embeddings becomes one row per chunk: PK (note_id, chunk_index), plus
chunk_text (what this vector actually encodes) and chunker_version. Migration
0077 clears the table — embeddings are derived (0067 precedent) and the old
whole-document rows are indistinguishable from single-chunk notes, so the
startup backfill regenerates the corpus at the new shape. The backfill is now
version-aware: a future shape change is a CHUNKER_VERSION bump that re-embeds
exactly the stale notes, not another wipe.

upsert_note_embedding takes (title, body) and chunks internally — one path
for the write path, the recurrence spawn and the backfill. The recurrence
spawn's own embed call is deleted outright: create_note already embeds via
embed_note (#2056), so the spawn was a second copy of the rule. An emptied
record now CLEARS its stale vectors instead of leaving them findable.

"""chunk_document — the document shape a record is embedded as (#280).
The model window is 512 tokens and fastembed truncates silently, so before
chunking, everything past ~400 words of a record was PERMANENTLY invisible to
semantic search. These tests pin the two halves of the fix's contract: short
records keep the exact historical shape (the corpus's sharpest vectors are
untouched), and long records lose NOTHING — every line of the body lands in
some chunk, each chunk inside the window budget, each carrying the title as
its topical anchor.
