// FaceEmbedderEngine — load SCRFD + ArcFace once, embed many images.
//
// Extracted from embed_faces.cpp so the same detect→align→embed pipeline can
// be driven from a long-lived process (the sae_embed Python module) instead
// of a fresh CLI invocation per image, which would reload both ONNX sessions
// every time.
