* Labelled jobs `vectordb` and `lancedb` so it's clear which package
they are for
* Fix permission issue in aarch64 Linux `vectordb` build that has been
blocking release for two months.
* Added Slack notifications for failure of these publish jobs.
so this was annoying me when writing the docs.
for a `search` query, one needed to chain `async` calls.
```ts
const res = await (await tbl.search("greetings")).toArray()
```
now the promise will be deferred until the query is collected, leading
to a more functional API
```ts
const res = await tbl.search("greetings").toArray()
```
It's useful to see the underlying query plan for debugging purposes.
This exposes LanceScanner's `explain_plan` function. Addresses #1288

fyi, this should have no breaking changes as npm is opt-out instead of
opt-in when resolving dependencies
all peer and optional dependencies get installed by default, so users
need to manually opt out.
`npm i --omit optional --omit peer`
previously the `registry` would return `undefined | EmbeddingFunction`
even for built in functions such as "openai"
now it'll return the correct type for `getRegistry().get("openai")
as well as pass in the correct options type to `create`
### before
```ts
const options: {model: 'not-a-real-model'}
// this'd compile just fine, but result in runtime error
const openai: EmbeddingFunction | undefined = getRegistry().get("openai").create(options)
// this'd also compile fine
const openai: EmbeddingFunction | undefined = getRegistry().get("openai").create({MODEL: ''})
```
### after
```ts
const options: {model: 'not-a-real-model'}
const openai: OpenAIEmbeddingFunction = getRegistry().get("openai").create(options)
// Type '"not-a-real-model"' is not assignable to type '"text-embedding-ada-002" | "text-embedding-3-large" | "text-embedding-3-small" | undefined'
```
this bumps napi version to 2.16 which contains a few bug fixes.
Additionally, it adds `catch_unwind` to any method that may
unintentionally panic.
`catch_unwind` will unwind the panics and return a regular JS error
instead of panicking.
* `table.add` requires `data` parameter on the docs page regarding use
of embedding models from HF
* also changed the name of example class from `TextModel` to `Words`
since that is what is used as parameter in the `db.create_table` call
* Per
https://lancedb.github.io/lancedb/python/python/#lancedb.table.Table.add
This allows users to specify URIs like:
```
s3+ddb://my_bucket/path?ddbTableName=myCommitTable
```
and it will support concurrent writes in S3.
* [x] Add dynamodb integration tests
* [x] Add modifications to get it working in Python sync API
* [x] Added section in documentation describing how to configure.
Closes#534
