When embeddings fail to initialize in the MCP server context (e.g., due
to working directory issues), the error was silently swallowed and
smart_ingest would fall back to regular ingest without explanation.
Changes:
- Add init_embeddings() method to Storage for explicit initialization
- Initialize embeddings at MCP server startup with error logging
- Add check_ready() method to EmbeddingService for error access
- Log warning when is_ready() returns false
Now users will see clear error messages like:
"Failed to initialize embedding service: ..."
"Hint: Check FASTEMBED_CACHE_PATH or ensure ~/.fastembed_cache exists"

Two-pronged fix for cross-compilation:
1. git2 with vendored-openssl feature - compiles OpenSSL from source,
eliminating system dependency issues across all platforms
2. houseabsolute/actions-rust-cross@v1 - dedicated GitHub Action that
properly handles cross-compilation with Docker containers
