fix(vectorstore): walk and read the brain through brainfs (#157, slice 3)
CI / Lint / Test / Vet (pull_request) Successful in 40s
CI / Mirror to GitHub (pull_request) Skipped

Sync walked wiki/ and knowledge/ with filepath.WalkDir and read each .md
with os.ReadFile. A symlinked note (Syncthing syncs symlinks) had its
target embedded into pgvector and served by semantic search; a FIFO
stalled the sync. The walk and read now go through brainfs: regular
files only, type checked on the opened handle.

- Chunks already embedded from a symlinked note are deleted on the next
  sync, because the note is no longer seen.
- A walk error still aborts Sync before the delete pass, so an unreadable
  subdir does not delete chunks of files that exist. A missing scan dir
  is skipped as before.
- brainfs gains Lstat, used for the mtime staleness check.
