## Title

    [Gemini Embeddings] 400 'BatchEmbedContentsRequest.requests: at most 100 requests can be in one batch' — SDKs batching 2048 inputs per call

## Body

    Cause (Maintainer-confirmed cause): Gemini batchEmbedContents enforces a 100-request cap per call; wrappers assumed OpenAI-like 2048.
    
    Fix status: fixed_upstream (fixed in @ai-sdk/google PR #16575 (release not verified))
    
    Other error fragments:
    - AI_APICallError: * BatchEmbedContentsRequest.requests: at most 100 requests can be in one batch
    
    Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor):
    - https://github.com/vercel/ai/issues/16101 (github_issue, 2026-06-13, released_fix): Exact error with gemini-embedding-001; provider set maxEmbeddingsPerCall=2048 vs Google cap 100; fixed by PR #16575 with backports.
    - https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchainjs/issues/4491 (github_issue, 2024-02-22, reported_symptom): Same 400 via LangChain.js GoogleGenerativeAI embeddings; solution: batch to <=100.
    
    Search phrasings: at most 100 requests can be in one batch gemini embedding; batchEmbedContents 100 limit; ai-sdk google embedMany 400
    
    Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): public_source.
