A file's JSON holds keywords in place of its CLIP embedding (closes #218)
check / check (push) Waiting to run

`quak backup` and `quak backup-metadata` write each file's ML data without its
CLIP embedding, and `keywords` in its place: the titles of the Discover
categories of Ente's photos app that the file falls in, highest score first. A
file falls in a category when the cosine similarity of its CLIP embedding and
the text embedding of the category's query reaches the category's minimum
score; as in Ente's app, five categories leave out videos.

The 16 text embeddings ship in `src/clip-keyword-vectors.ts`, written by
`bin/clip-keyword-vectors` from Ente's list and CLIP text model. quak runs no
model and gains no dependency.

Disclosure: the text embeddings are committed model output, against
REPO_POLICIES' rule on generated files.
