**test(api): add integration tests for API endpoints and core functionality**

- **Integration Tests**:
  - Introduced `api-integration.test.ts` to validate API functionality:
    - Verifies text insertion, vector embedding generation, and search operations.
    - Confirms HNSW index correctness for vector similarity search.
    - Ensures no dimensional mismatches in embeddings.

- **Test Server**:
  - Added test server utilizing Express for endpoint simulation (`/insert` and `/search/text`).

- **Dependencies**:
  - Introduced `express` and `node-fetch` as new dependencies for testing purposes.

- **Vitest Fix**:
  - Updated `vitest.config.ts` to resolve the `process.memoryUsage` error by setting `logHeapUsage: false`.

- **Package Updates**:
  - Modified `package-lock.json` to include newly added dependencies and updates.

**Purpose**: Guarantees the stability of core API endpoints and vector-related functionality, ensuring reliable behavior for end-to-end scenarios.

+/**
+ * API Integration Tests
+ * 
+ * Purpose:
+ * This test suite verifies the end-to-end functionality of the Brainy API, specifically:
+ * 1. Text insertion via the API
+ * 2. Vector embedding generation from text
+ * 3. Search functionality using the generated embeddings
+ * 4. HNSW index correctness for vector similarity search
+ * 
+ * The tests confirm that:
+ * - The API can successfully insert text and generate embeddings
+ * - The search functionality can find inserted text
+ * - There are no vector dimension mismatches
+ * - The HNSW index is working correctly for similarity search
+ * 
+ * These tests are critical for ensuring the core functionality of the vector database
+ * is working correctly in a real-world API scenario.
