feat: support FM-Index scalar index for substring search (#3532)
Adds an FM-Index — a scalar index over string and binary columns that
accelerates substring search (`contains(col, 'needle')`), distinct from
the tokenized `FTS` index — across the Rust core and the Python and
TypeScript bindings.
## Rust
- `Index::Fm(FmIndexBuilder)` and `IndexType::Fm`.
- `make_index_params` maps `Index::Fm` to Lance's
`ScalarIndexParams::for_builtin(BuiltinIndexType::Fm)`.
- `supported_fm_data_type` validates
`Utf8`/`LargeUtf8`/`Binary`/`LargeBinary` columns.
- `list_indices` round-trips the type (`"Fm"` → `IndexType::Fm`); the
remote wire type is `"FM"`.
## Python
Adds `lancedb.index.Fm`, accepted by `create_index`:
```python
from lancedb.index import Fm
await tbl.create_index("text", config=Fm())
```
## TypeScript
Adds the `Index.fm()` factory:
```ts
await tbl.createIndex("text", { config: Index.fm() });
```

### fm()

```ts

static fm(): Index

```

|

Create an FM-Index.
|
||||
|
||||
An FM-Index is a scalar index on string or binary columns that accelerates
|
||||
substring search, i.e. `contains(col, 'needle')`. Unlike the tokenized
|
||||
full-text-search index, it matches arbitrary substrings of the raw bytes.
