fix(core): skip empty/invalid chunks before embedding; guard OpenAI embeddings

Avoid 400 errors from OpenAI when chunker yields empty strings by filtering
invalid texts in LeannBuilder.build_index. Add validation fail-fast in
OpenAI embedding path to surface upstream issues earlier. Keeps passages and
embeddings aligned during build.
