Provides the ability to set a timeout for merge insert. The default
underlying timeout is however long the first attempt takes, or if there
are multiple attempts, 30 seconds. This has two use cases:
1. Make the timeout shorter, when you want to fail if it takes too long.
2. Allow taking more time to do retries.
<!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai
-->
## Summary by CodeRabbit
- **New Features**
- Added support for specifying a timeout when performing merge insert
operations in Python, Node.js, and Rust APIs.
- Introduced a new option to control the maximum allowed execution time
for merge inserts, including retry timeout handling.
- **Documentation**
- Updated and added documentation to describe the new timeout option and
its usage in APIs.
- **Tests**
- Added and updated tests to verify correct timeout behavior during
merge insert operations.

This moves the __len__ method from LanceTable and RemoteTable to Table
so that child classes don't need to implement their own. In the process,
it fixes the implementation of RemoteTable's length method, which was
previously missing a return statement.

-->
## Summary by CodeRabbit
- **Refactor**
- Centralized the table length functionality in the base table class,
simplifying subclass behavior.
- Removed redundant or non-functional length methods from specific table
classes.
- **Tests**
- Added a new test to verify correct table length reporting for remote
tables.

Based on this comment:
https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb/issues/2228#issuecomment-2730463075
and https://github.com/lancedb/lance/pull/2357
Here is my attempt at implementing bindings for returning merge stats
from a `merge_insert.execute` call for lancedb.
Note: I have almost no idea what I am doing in Rust but tried to follow
existing code patterns and pay attention to compiler hints.
- The change in nodejs binding appeared to be necessary to get
compilation to work, presumably this could actual work properly by
returning some kind of NAPI JS object of the stats data?
- I am unsure of what to do with the remote/table.rs changes -
necessarily for compilation to work; I assume this is related to LanceDB
cloud, but unsure the best way to handle that at this point.
Proof of function:
```python
import pandas as pd
import lancedb
db = lancedb.connect("/tmp/test.db")
test_data = pd.DataFrame(
{
"title": ["Hello", "Test Document", "Example", "Data Sample", "Last One"],
"id": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
"content": [
"World",
"This is a test",
"Another example",
"More test data",
"Final entry",
],
}
)
table = db.create_table("documents", data=test_data, exist_ok=True, mode="overwrite")
update_data = pd.DataFrame(
{
"title": [
"Hello, World",
"Test Document, it's good",
"Example",
"Data Sample",
"Last One",
"New One",
],
"id": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6],
"content": [
"World",
"This is a test",
"Another example",
"More test data",
"Final entry",
"New content",
],
}
)
stats = (
table.merge_insert(on="id")
.when_matched_update_all()
.when_not_matched_insert_all()
.execute(update_data)
)
print(stats)
```
returns
```
{'num_inserted_rows': 1, 'num_updated_rows': 5, 'num_deleted_rows': 0}
```

* Add a new "table stats" API to expose basic table and fragment
statistics with local and remote table implementations
### Questions
* This is using `calculate_data_stats` to determine total bytes in the
table. This seems like a potentially expensive operation - are there any
concerns about performance for large datasets?
### Notes
* bytes_on_disk seems to be stored at the column level but there does
not seem to be a way to easily calculate total bytes per fragment. This
may need to be added in lance before we can support fragment size
(bytes) statistics.
<!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai

## Summary by CodeRabbit
- **New Features**
- Added a method to retrieve comprehensive table statistics, including
total rows, index counts, storage size, and detailed fragment size
metrics such as minimum, maximum, mean, and percentiles.
- Enabled fetching of table statistics from remote sources through
asynchronous requests.
- Extended table interfaces across Python, Rust, and Node.js to support
synchronous and asynchronous retrieval of table statistics.
- **Tests**
- Introduced tests to verify the accuracy of the new table statistics
feature for both populated and empty tables.
