[FIX] Bump bundled Qdrant server to v1.16.1 to match qdrant-client

[amanattrish]

What

Bump the bundled Qdrant server image from v1.8.3 to v1.16.1 in docker/docker-compose-dev-essentials.yaml.

Why

unstract/sdk1 pins qdrant-client>=1.16.0,<1.17.0 (#1845) but the compose file still ran the 1.8.3 server (set in #185). The version gap makes the client hit an API path the old server does not expose, so adding the bundled Qdrant as a vector DB fails on test connection with 404 (Not Found).

How

Changed the image tag to v1.16.1, which is within the client's supported range.

Can this PR break any existing features. If yes, please list possible items. If no, please explain why. (PS: Admins do not merge the PR without this section filled)

Fresh installs: no risk, the vector store starts empty.
Existing installs: the persisted qdrant_data volume was created by 1.8.3. Qdrant keeps storage backward compatible, so 1.16.1 should read it, but I have only tested a fresh setup. Flagging so maintainers can confirm the upgrade path.

Database Migrations

None.

Env Config

None.

Relevant Docs

None.

Related Issues or PRs

Fixes #2014.

Dependencies Versions

Qdrant server image: v1.8.3 -> v1.16.1 (aligns with qdrant-client 1.16.2).

Notes on Testing

• Bumped the tag and recreated the container: docker compose -f docker-compose.yaml up -d --force-recreate qdrant
• curl http://localhost:6333/ reports version 1.16.1.
• Onboarding > Connect Vector Database > Qdrant with http://unstract-vector-db:6333 now passes test connection.
• Backend logs no longer show the client/server incompatibility warning.

@amanattrish thanks for your contribution. Apologies for getting to this late, but it seems like we already bumped the version in #2046 . Hadn't noticed your PR in time back then, closing this on that account
