- make open table behaviour consistent:
- remote tables will check if the table exists by calling /describe and
throwing an error if the call doesn't succeed
- this is similar to the behaviour for local tables where we will raise
an exception when opening the table if the local dataset doesn't exist
- The table names are cached in the client with a TTL
- Also fixes a small bug where if the remote error response was
deserialized from JSON as an object, we'd print it resulting in the
unhelpful error message: `Error: Server Error, status: 404, message: Not
Found: [object Object]`
This prevents an issue where users can do something like:
```js
db.createTable('my-table#123123')
```
The server has logic to determine that '#' character is not allowed in
the table name, but currently this is being returned as 404 error
because it routes to `/v1/my-table#123123/create` and `#123123/create`
will not be parsed as part of path
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`

Description
Exposes pyarrow batch api during query execution - relevant when there
is no vector search query, dataset is large and the filtered result is
larger than memory.

I added a new `IntoArrow` trait for adding data into a table.
Unfortunately, it seems my approach for implementing the trait for
"things that are already record batch readers" was flawed. This PR
corrects that flaw and, conveniently, removes the need to box readers at
all (though it is ok if you do).
This PR adds support for passing through a set of ordering fields at
index time (unsigned ints that tantivity can use as fast_fields) that at
query time you can sort your results on. This is useful for cases where
you want to get related hits, i.e by keyword, but order those hits by
some other score, such as popularity.
I.e search for songs descriptions that match on "sad AND jazz AND 1920"
and then order those by number of times played. Example usage can be
seen in the fts tests.
