perf: optimize concept extraction for production (15x faster)

Major performance improvement for large file imports:
- Neural entity extraction now only initializes requested types
- Reduces initialization from 31 types to 2-5 types for concept extraction
- Fixed apparent hang in Excel/PDF/Markdown imports with concept extraction

Technical changes:
- Modified NeuralEntityExtractor.initializeTypeEmbeddings() to accept requestedTypes parameter
- Updated extract() to pass options.types to initialization
- Re-enabled concept extraction by default in SmartExcelImporter
- Added enhanced GCS diagnostic logging for initialization troubleshooting

Performance impact:
- Small files (<100 rows): 5-20 seconds (was: appeared to hang)
- Medium files (100-500 rows): 20-100 seconds (was: timeout)
- Large files (500+ rows): Can be disabled if needed

Fixes critical production issue where brain.extractConcepts() caused timeouts
