📄 Description
Remove Depends(get_session) from POST /query endpoint to prevent database connections from being held during embedding API calls (1-5+ seconds).
The Memories.get_memories_by_user_id() function manages its own short-lived session internally, releasing the connection before the slow EMBEDDING_FUNCTION() call begins.
