feat: support setting unenforced primary key (#3394)
## Summary Adds `Table::set_unenforced_primary_key` — records a single column as the table's unenforced primary key in Lance schema field metadata. "Unenforced" means LanceDB does not check uniqueness on write; the key is metadata that `merge_insert` consumes. - Single-column only; the column must exist and have a supported dtype (Int32, Int64, Utf8, LargeUtf8, Binary, LargeBinary, FixedSizeBinary). The API accepts an iterable for binding ergonomics but requires exactly one column — compound keys are rejected. - The primary key is immutable: calling this on a table that already has an unenforced primary key is rejected. Concurrent writers racing to set the key fail at commit time rather than silently overriding it. - `RemoteTable` returns `NotSupported`. - Bindings: Python (`AsyncTable`, `LanceTable`, `RemoteTable`) and TypeScript (`Table.setUnenforcedPrimaryKey`). ## Context Split out from #3354 per review feedback, so the unenforced primary key and the `merge_insert` sharding spec land as separate reviewable PRs. No Lance dependency bump — `main` is already on v7.0.0-beta.10, which includes the field-metadata round-trip fix the API relies on. Enforcing primary-key immutability at the Lance commit layer (so the cross-column concurrent race is also rejected) is a companion Lance change: lance-format/lance#6810.
