resolves #4429

What is in this change?

This PR introduces a one line fix to ensure the pgvector extension is enabled on the user's PG database before proceeding with document embedding. This fixes the "type vector does not exist" error.

As stated in the issue, this is happening because by default, a PG database w/ PG Vector does not have the plugin enabled. It must be explicit enabled with the SQL command CREATE EXTENSION vector
