feat: support rename_table on LanceNamespaceDatabase (#3520)

## Summary

Closes #3412

Implements `rename_table` for `LanceNamespaceDatabase` (sync and async
Python) and the Rust `NamespaceDatabase` backend. Previously these
raised `NotImplementedError`; this PR delegates to the
`LanceNamespace.rename_table` method which is part of the
lance-namespace spec.

### Changes

- **`rust/lancedb/src/database/namespace.rs`**: Remove the
`NotImplementedError` stub for `rename_table`. Build a
`RenameTableRequest` (with `id`, `new_table_name`, and optionally
`new_namespace_id`) and call `self.namespace.rename_table(...)`,
mirroring the existing `drop_table` pattern.

- **`python/python/lancedb/namespace.py`**: Import `RenameTableRequest`
from `lance_namespace`. Replace the `raise NotImplementedError` in both
`LanceNamespaceDatabase.rename_table` (sync) and
`AsyncLanceNamespaceDatabase.rename_table` (async) with a call to
`self._namespace_client.rename_table(request)`.

- **`python/python/tests/test_namespace.py`**: Replace the
`test_rename_table_not_supported` test (which checked for
`NotImplementedError`) with `test_rename_table`, which:
  1. Creates a table in a namespace
2. Calls `rename_table` with `cur_namespace_path` and
`new_namespace_path`
  3. Asserts the old name is gone from `table_names()`
  4. Asserts the new name appears in `table_names()`
  5. Verifies the renamed table can be opened

## Test plan

- [ ] Existing namespace tests pass in CI (all rely on
`lance.namespace.DirectoryNamespace` which requires the full lance
package)
- [ ] `test_rename_table` exercises the full rename path: create →
rename → verify old gone → verify new present → open
- [ ] Rust build passes with the updated `namespace.rs` (requires Rust
toolchain in CI)
