refactor(python): remove legacy tantivy FTS support (#3282)

This follows the Rust-side Tantivy removal by deleting the remaining
Python Tantivy runtime, tests, and packaging references.

It also turns the legacy Python-only Tantivy parameters into explicit
errors and stops reading legacy `_indices/fts` directories so Python FTS
is fully native-only.
