Performance: use small vec0 chunks and larger pages for the LLM index

The vec0 default of 1024 rows per vector chunk makes each chunk a multi-megabyte blob. On spinning disks, indexing a document took about 2.5 seconds and re-indexing one about 13 seconds. With 32 rows per chunk the same operations take about 35 and 180 milliseconds, with the write-ahead log a third of the size and no cost in query speed or file size. Pair that with 64 KiB SQLite pages, which made cold scans about 35% faster and warm ones about 45% faster at no write cost once the chunks are small. The page size is set before the file enters WAL mode, so it applies to new files. Neither setting changes the schema or any query, so there is no migration. An existing index picks up both the next time it is rebuilt through compact or rebuild.
