- adds `loss` into the index stats for vector index
- now `optimize` can retrain the vector index

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
Closes#1106
Unfortunately, these need to be set at the connection level. I
investigated whether if we let users provide a callback they could use
`AsyncLocalStorage` to access their context. However, it doesn't seem
like NAPI supports this right now. I filed an issue:
https://github.com/napi-rs/napi-rs/issues/2456
This opens up the door for more custom database implementations than the
two we have today. The biggest change should be inivisble:
`ConnectionInternal` has been renamed to `Database`, made public, and
refactored
However, there are a few breaking changes. `data_storage_version` and
`enable_v2_manifest_paths` have been moved from options on
`create_table` to options for the database which are now set via
`storage_options`.
Before:
```
db = connect(uri)
tbl = db.create_table("my_table", data, data_storage_version="legacy", enable_v2_manifest_paths=True)
```
After:
```
db = connect(uri, storage_options={
"new_table_enable_v2_manifest_paths": "true",
"new_table_data_storage_version": "legacy"
})
tbl = db.create_table("my_table", data)
```
BREAKING CHANGE: the data_storage_version, enable_v2_manifest_paths
options have moved from options to create_table to storage_options.
BREAKING CHANGE: the use_legacy_format option has been removed,
data_storage_version has replaced it for some time now
* Make `npm run docs` fail if there are any warnings. This will catch
items missing from the API reference.
* Add a check in our CI to make sure `npm run dos` runs without warnings
and doesn't generate any new files (indicating it might be out-of-date.
* Hide constructors that aren't user facing.
* Remove unused enum `WriteMode`.
Closes#2068
* Sets `"useCodeBlocks": true`
* Adds a post-processing script `nodejs/typedoc_post_process.js` that
puts the parameter description on the same line as the parameter name,
like it is in our Python docs. This makes the text hierarchy clearer in
those sections and also makes the sections shorter.
BREAKING CHANGE: default tokenizer no longer does stemming or stop-word
removal. Users should explicitly turn that option on in the future.

We aren't yet ready to switch over the examples since almost all JS
examples rely on embeddings and we haven't yet ported those over.
However, this makes it possible for those that are interested to start
using `@lancedb/lancedb`
