fix: include embedding models in models tab and add playground redirect in configure modal

- Include embedding models in useFetchLlamaModels on Models tab
- Add redirectToPlayground to ChatbotConfigurationModal in VectorStoreTableRow.tsx
- Move computeEmbeddingModelStatus and reuse in Configuration modal
- Update tests
