David Snelling 4b6f63ed67 feat: export provider contracts for the plugin surface brainy consumes
Native accelerators (cortex) register providers for metadataIndex, graphIndex,
hnsw, entityIdMapper, cache, columnStore, and aggregation. Until now the exact
method/property surface brainy calls on each was implicit — a provider could
drop a member brainy depends on and only fail at runtime when that path ran.

This defines and exports the provider contracts from the stable
@soulcraft/brainy/plugin entrypoint:
- MetadataIndexProvider, GraphIndexProvider, HnswProvider,
  EntityIdMapperProvider, CacheProvider — each typed as exactly the surface
  brainy calls (optional/feature-detected members like HNSW setPersistMode and
  enableCOW are intentionally excluded).
- Re-exports ColumnStoreProvider and AggregationProvider (and the aggregate
  types) from the same entrypoint so a plugin author can import the whole
  provider surface from one place.

Brainy's own baseline classes now `implements` these contracts
(MetadataIndexManager, GraphAdjacencyIndex, HNSWIndex, EntityIdMapper,
UnifiedCache), so the interfaces can never silently diverge from what brainy
ships — and any provider that declares `implements` gets a compile error the
moment brainy starts requiring a new member.

The embeddings/embedBatch providers stay typed by the existing EmbeddingFunction
(no duplicate interface added). Type-only changes; no runtime behavior change.

// (Cortex) that declares `implements MetadataIndexProvider` gets a compile
// error the moment a method Brainy depends on is dropped or its signature
// drifts. Brainy's own baseline classes (`MetadataIndexManager`,
// `GraphAdjacencyIndex`, `HNSWIndex`, `EntityIdMapper`, `UnifiedCache`)
// implement them too, so the contract can never silently diverge from the
// thing Brainy ships.
//
// Keep these in lockstep with the call sites in `brainy.ts` and the index
// classes. When Brainy starts calling a new member, add it here — every
// implementation then fails to compile until it provides the member.
