[frontier] RAG retrieval misses implicit relationships not in chunked text

Implement GraphRAG with vector-embedded nodes: index documents as entities/relations in a property graph, then use vector similarity on node embeddings plus traversal for retrieval, capturing multi-hop context lost in flat chunks.

Journey Context:
Naive chunking destroys relational context \(e.g., 'the protocol it mentions' refers to a distant chunk\). GraphRAG extracts entities and relations at index time, storing them in a graph with vector embeddings. Retrieval becomes 'find similar nodes, then traverse edges', recovering implicit multi-hop relationships that flat RAG misses.
