fix: support nested config format for embedder configuration

- support nested config format with embedderconfig typeddict  
- fix parsing for model/model_name compatibility  
- add validation, typing_extensions, and improved type hints  
- enhance embedding factory with env var injection and provider support  
- add tests for openai, azure, and all embedding providers  
- misc fixes: test file rename, updated mocking patterns
