f23327af79 fix: use SPDX-compliant license name for nodejs packages (#2558)
Update license field from `Apache 2.0` to be `Apache-2.0` for all
Node.js packages.

This was causing GitHub's Dependency Review license check to fail with:
> The validity of the licenses of the dependencies below could not be
determined. Ensure that they are valid SPDX licenses

b3a4efd587 fix: revert change default read_consistency_interval=5s (#2327)
This reverts commit a547c523c2 or #2281

The current implementation can cause panics and performance degradation.
I will bring this back with more testing in
https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb/pull/2311

## Summary by CodeRabbit

- **Documentation**
- Enhanced clarity on read consistency settings with updated
descriptions and default behavior.
- Removed outdated warnings about eventual consistency from the
troubleshooting guide.

- **Refactor**
- Streamlined the handling of the read consistency interval across
integrations, now defaulting to "None" for improved performance.
  - Simplified internal logic to offer a more consistent experience.

- **Tests**
- Updated test expectations to reflect the new default representation
for the read consistency interval.
- Removed redundant tests related to "no consistency" settings for
streamlined testing.

a547c523c2 feat!: change default read_consistency_interval=5s (#2281)
Previously, when we loaded the next version of the table, we would block
all reads with a write lock. Now, we only do that if
`read_consistency_interval=0`. Otherwise, we load the next version
asynchronously in the background. This should mean that
`read_consistency_interval > 0` won't have a meaningful impact on
latency.

Along with this change, I felt it was safe to change the default
consistency interval to 5 seconds. The current default is `None`, which
means we will **never** check for a new version by default. I think that
default is contrary to most users expectations.

7747c9bcbf feat(node): parse arrow types in alterColumns() (#2208)
Previously, users could only specify new data types in `alterColumns` as
strings:

```ts
await tbl.alterColumns([
  path: "price",
  dataType: "float"
]);
```

But this has some problems:

1. It wasn't clear what were valid types
2. It was impossible to specify nested types, like lists and vector
columns.

This PR changes it to take an Arrow data type, similar to how the Python
API works. This allows casting vector types:

```ts
await tbl.alterColumns([
  {
    path: "vector",
    dataType: new arrow.FixedSizeList(
      2,
      new arrow.Field("item", new arrow.Float16(), false),
    ),
  },
]);
```

Closes #2185

7ac5f74c80 feat!: add variable store to embeddings registry (#2112)
BREAKING CHANGE: embedding function implementations in Node need to now
call `resolveVariables()` in their constructors and should **not**
implement `toJSON()`.

This tries to address the handling of secrets. In Node, they are
currently lost. In Python, they are currently leaked into the table
schema metadata.

This PR introduces an in-memory variable store on the function registry.
It also allows embedding function definitions to label certain config
values as "sensitive", and the preprocessing logic will raise an error
if users try to pass in hard-coded values.

Closes #2110
Closes #521

f9d5fa88a1 feat!: migrate FTS from tantivy to lance-index (#1483)
Lance now supports FTS, so add it into lancedb Python, TypeScript and
Rust SDKs.

For Python, we still use tantivy based FTS by default because the lance
FTS index now misses some features of tantivy.

For Python:
- Support to create lance based FTS index
- Support to specify columns for full text search (only available for
lance based FTS index)

For TypeScript:
- Change the search method so that it can accept both string and vector
- Support full text search

For Rust
- Support full text search

The others:
- Update the FTS doc

BREAKING CHANGE: 
- for Python, this renames the attached score column of FTS from "score"
to "_score", this could be a breaking change for users that rely the
scores
