**test(tests): add comprehensive test suite for Brainy functionality**

- **New Tests Added**:
  - Introduced multiple test suites covering core functionalities (`core.test.ts`), vector operations (`vector-operations.test.ts`), Node.js environment (`environment.node.test.ts`), browser setup (`environment.browser.test.ts`), and TensorFlow.js-specific behaviors (`tensorflow-patch.test.ts`).
  - Added performance, scalability, and error-handling tests to ensure robust validation of vector addition, search, and text embedding functionalities.
  - Introduced setup utilities (`tests/setup.ts`) and standardized test utilities for creating predictable test cases.

- **Configuration**:
  - Created `vitest.config.ts` for custom test configurations, including support for modern test environments (`jsdom`, `happy-dom`) and extended timeouts for asynchronous operations.

- **Validation**:
  - Includes compatibility checks for TensorFlow.js imports and ensures proper handling of `TextEncoder`/`TextDecoder` in Node.js environments.

This commit significantly enhances the testing coverage and structure, ensuring Brainy functionality is robust, cross-platform, and aligned with evolving reliability standards.
