Optimized the BasicEstimator.predict method using vectorized matrix operations and precomputed norms, resulting in a ~12x speedup. Added backward compatibility for existing saved models and improved robustness for empty inputs.

This change optimizes the \`BasicEstimator.predict\` method by vectorizing the Euclidean distance calculation using the squared distance expansion formula.

💡 What:
- Updated \`BasicEstimator.fit\` to precompute squared norms of fitted embeddings.
- Replaced the O(N) Python loop in \`BasicEstimator.predict\` with vectorized matrix operations.
- Added backward compatibility in \`BasicEstimator.load\` to recompute norms if missing from old saved models.
- Added robustness to \`BasicEstimator.predict\` for empty inputs.

🎯 Why:
The original implementation used a loop over query embeddings, calling \`np.linalg.norm\` for each, which is slow for large batches of queries and fitted samples.

📊 Impact:
- ~12x speedup for typical prediction tasks (measured 0.19s -> 0.016s for 500 queries vs 2000 fitted samples).
- Significant efficiency gain in batch processing.

🔬 Measurement:
Verified correctness and speedup with benchmarks and existing unit tests.
