fix: prevent hang in CI by flushing print statements and redirecting embedding server output

- Add flush=True to all print statements in convert_to_csr.py to prevent buffer deadlock
- Redirect embedding server stdout/stderr to DEVNULL in CI environment (CI=true)
- Fix timeout in embedding_server_manager.stop_server() final wait call
