feat: add mem_wal flag to merge insert for MemWAL write path

Add support for enabling MemWAL (Memory Write-Ahead Log) mode on merge insert
operations. This allows streaming writes to route through memory nodes for
high-performance buffered writes.

Changes:
- Add `mem_wal` field to MergeInsertBuilder with validation
- Add `x-lancedb-mem-wal-enabled` header for remote requests
- Add Python `mem_wal()` method to LanceMergeInsertBuilder
- Add validation to ensure only upsert pattern is supported:
  - when_matched_update_all() without filter
  - when_not_matched_insert_all()
- Throw NotSupported error for native tables
- Add mem_wal_enabled to ClientConfig for Python/Node bindings

-# Agent Skills
-
-This directory contains repo-scoped code agent skills for the LanceDB project.
-
-Each skill is a folder that contains a required `SKILL.md` and optional bundled resources.
-
-Codex discovers skills from `.agents/skills` in the current working directory and parent directories.
-
-The `lancedb` skill lives in the `plugins/lancedb` plugin (see `plugins/lancedb/skills/lancedb`)
-so it can be installed via the plugin marketplaces (`.claude-plugin/marketplace.json` and
-`.agents/plugins/marketplace.json`); the `lancedb` entry here is a symlink into that plugin.

-name: lancedb-update-lance-dependency
-description: Update LanceDB to a specific Lance release or tag. Use when bumping Lance dependencies in the lancedb repository, including Rust workspace Lance crates, Java lance-core, validation, branch creation, commit, push, and PR creation when requested.
----
-
-# LanceDB Update Lance Dependency
-
-## Scope
-
-Use this skill in the `lancedb/lancedb` repository when updating the Lance dependency to a specific Lance version or tag.
-
-Inputs can be a version (`7.2.0-beta.1`), a tag (`v7.2.0-beta.1`), a tag ref (`refs/tags/v7.2.0-beta.1`), or `latest`.
-
-## Workflow
-
-1. Confirm the worktree status with `git status --short`.
-2. Resolve the target Lance version:
-
-   - If the input is `latest`, empty, or omitted, run:
-
-     ```bash
-     python3 ci/check_lance_release.py
-     ```
-
-     Parse the JSON output. If `needs_update` is not `true`, stop without creating a PR. Otherwise use `latest_tag`.
-
-   - If the input is explicit, use it directly.
-
-3. Compute update metadata without changing files:
-
-   ```bash
-   python3 ci/update_lance_dependency.py "$TAG_OR_VERSION" --metadata-only
-   ```
-
-   Before making changes, check for an existing open PR with the emitted `pr_title`:
-
-   ```bash
-   gh pr list --search "\"$PR_TITLE\" in:title" --state open --limit 1 --json number,url,title
-   ```
-
-   If a matching open PR exists, stop and report it instead of creating a duplicate.
-
-4. Run the deterministic update entrypoint:
-
-   ```bash
-   python3 ci/update_lance_dependency.py "$TAG_OR_VERSION"
-   ```
-
-   This updates the Rust workspace Lance dependencies through `ci/set_lance_version.py`, updates `java/pom.xml`, refreshes Cargo metadata, and prints JSON metadata containing `branch_name`, `commit_message`, and `pr_title`.
-
-5. Run validation:
-
-   ```bash
-   cargo clippy --quiet --workspace --tests --all-features -- -D warnings
-   cargo fmt --all --quiet
-   ```
-
-   Fix real diagnostics and rerun clippy until it succeeds. Do not skip warnings.
-
-6. Inspect `git status --short` and `git diff` to ensure only the Lance dependency update and required compatibility fixes are present.
-
-7. If the task only asks to prepare local changes, stop here and report the changed files and validation result.
-
-8. If the task asks to publish the update, create a branch using the printed `branch_name`, stage all relevant files, and commit using the printed `commit_message`. Do not amend or rewrite existing commits.
-
-9. Push to `origin`. Before creating the PR, check that the current token has push permission:
-
-   ```bash
-   gh api repos/lancedb/lancedb --jq .permissions.push
-   ```
-
-   If the remote branch already exists for the same generated branch name, delete the remote ref with `gh api -X DELETE repos/lancedb/lancedb/git/refs/heads/$BRANCH_NAME`, then push. Do not force-push.
-
-10. Create a PR targeting `main` with the printed `pr_title`. If there is no PR template, keep the body to two or three concise sentences: state the Lance dependency bump, note any required compatibility fixes, and link the triggering Lance tag or release.
-
-11. Read back the remote PR title after creation. If it is not a Conventional Commit title, fix it immediately.
-
-12. When running in GitHub Actions after creating the LanceDB PR, trigger the Sophon dependency update:
-
-    ```bash
-    gh workflow run codex-bump-lancedb-lance.yml \
-      --repo lancedb/sophon \
-      -f lance_ref="$LANCE_TAG" \
-      -f lancedb_ref="$BRANCH_NAME"
-    gh run list --repo lancedb/sophon --workflow codex-bump-lancedb-lance.yml --limit 1 --json databaseId,url,displayTitle
-    ```
-
-    Use the emitted metadata `tag` value as `LANCE_TAG`. Do this only after a new LanceDB PR has been created. If the update was skipped because no update is needed or an open PR already exists, do not trigger Sophon.
-
-## GitHub Actions
-
-When this skill is used from GitHub Actions, `TAG`, `GH_TOKEN`, and `GITHUB_TOKEN` may already be set. Resolve `latest` first when `TAG` is empty. Once an explicit tag or version is known, use:
-
-```bash
-python3 ci/update_lance_dependency.py "$TAG" --github-output "$GITHUB_OUTPUT"
-```
-
-Then use the emitted `branch_name`, `commit_message`, and `pr_title` values for branch, commit, and PR creation.

+          You are running inside the lancedb repository on a GitHub Actions runner. Update the Lance dependency to version ${VERSION} and prepare a pull request for maintainers to review.
 
-          Use \$lancedb-update-lance-dependency with target "${TARGET_TAG}".
+          Follow these steps exactly:
+          1. Use script "ci/set_lance_version.py" to update Lance Rust dependencies. The script already refreshes Cargo metadata, so allow it to finish even if it takes time.
+          2. Update the Java lance-core dependency version in "java/pom.xml": change the "<lance-core.version>...</lance-core.version>" property to "${VERSION}".
+          3. Run "cargo clippy --workspace --tests --all-features -- -D warnings". If diagnostics appear, fix them yourself and rerun clippy until it exits cleanly. Do not skip any warnings.
+          4. After clippy succeeds, run "cargo fmt --all" to format the workspace.
+          5. Ensure the repository is clean except for intentional changes. Inspect "git status --short" and "git diff" to confirm the dependency update and any required fixes.
+          6. Create and switch to a new branch named "${BRANCH_NAME}" (replace any duplicated hyphens if necessary).
+          7. Stage all relevant files with "git add -A". Commit using the message "${COMMIT_TYPE}: update lance dependency to v${VERSION}".
+          8. Push the branch to origin. If the remote branch already exists, delete it first with "gh api -X DELETE repos/lancedb/lancedb/git/refs/heads/${BRANCH_NAME}" then push with "git push origin ${BRANCH_NAME}". Do NOT use "git push --force" or "git push -f".
+          9. env "GH_TOKEN" is available, use "gh" tools for github related operations like creating pull request.
+          10. Create a pull request targeting "main" with title "${COMMIT_TYPE}: update lance dependency to v${VERSION}". First, write the PR body to /tmp/pr-body.md using a heredoc (cat <<'EOF' > /tmp/pr-body.md). The body should summarize the dependency bump, clippy/fmt verification, and link the triggering tag (${TAG}). Then run "gh pr create --body-file /tmp/pr-body.md".
+          11. After creating the PR, display the PR URL, "git status --short", and a concise summary of the commands run and their results.
 
           Constraints:
-          - Use env "GH_TOKEN" for GitHub operations.
+          - Use bash commands; avoid modifying GitHub workflow files other than through the scripted task above.
-          - Do not merge the pull request.
+          - Do not merge the PR.
-          - Do not force-push.
+          - If any command fails, diagnose and fix the issue instead of aborting.
-          - Do not create a duplicate pull request if an open PR already exists for the target Lance version.
-          - If any command fails, diagnose and fix the root cause instead of aborting.
-          - After creating the PR, display the PR URL, "git status --short", and a concise summary of the commands run and their results.

-## Python API reference
-
-`docs/src/python/python.md` is the entire Python API reference. It is maintained by
-hand, and anything not listed there is not rendered at all, so new public classes and
-module-level functions have to be added explicitly. How depends on the module:
-
-* `lancedb.index`, `lancedb.embeddings`, `lancedb.remote`, and `lancedb.rerankers` are
-  rendered by a single directive each, driven by the module's `__all__`. Add the new
-  name to `__all__` and it appears; forget, and it is silently omitted.
-* Everything else (`lancedb`, `lancedb.table`, `lancedb.query`, `lancedb.db`, ...) is
-  listed symbol by symbol. Add a `::: lancedb.<module>.<Name>` line to the matching
-  section, and remember that the page separates synchronous and asynchronous APIs.
-
-Deliberately undocumented: concrete implementations reached through an abstract base
-(`LanceTable`, `LanceDBConnection`, `RemoteDBConnection`), query base classes already
-covered by `inherited_members`, and internal helpers.
-
-Cross-references in docstrings use mkdocstrings syntax, `[text][lancedb.table.Table]`.
-Plain relative links such as `[Table](Table)` do not resolve. To check your work:
-
-```shell
-pip install -r docs/requirements.txt
-cd docs && PYTHONPATH=. mkdocs build
-```
-
-The docs site only builds on pushes to `main`, so this is not covered by PR CI.

-## Cross-SDK parity
-
-LanceDB exposes the same core (`rust/lancedb`) through Python, TypeScript (`nodejs`),
-and Java bindings. Behavioral drift between SDKs is a recurring problem, so watch for
-parity gaps when reviewing — but only flag real ones:
-
-* If the change adds or modifies user-facing API or behavior in the shared core
-  (`rust/lancedb`), check whether each binding that should expose it (`python`,
-  `nodejs`) does. A core change with no corresponding binding update is worth a note.
-* If the change adds or modifies a public API in one SDK but not the other, open the
-  sibling SDK's corresponding module and state whether an equivalent exists. If not,
-  note it as a possible parity gap and suggest a follow-up issue.
-* For bug fixes, first read the sibling SDK's analogous code path to check whether the
-  same bug exists there. Only raise parity if it actually does. Do not ask to "port" a
-  fix for a bug that only ever existed in one binding.
-* Stay silent on internal-only refactors, tests, docs, and changes with no cross-SDK
-  surface.
-* Parity expectations apply to the Python and TypeScript (`nodejs`) SDKs. Java currently
-  implements only the remote table, not the local/embedded backend, so it is expected to
-  be partial — do not flag Java for missing local-only functionality.
-* Keep parity feedback to a short, clearly-labeled note (e.g. "Possible SDK parity
-  gap: …"). It is advisory, not a merge blocker.

-    The current Java namespace API exposes index type, index name, distance type, and full text search tokenizer options.

-# Class: Branches
-
-Branch manager for a [Table](Table.md).
-
-Unlike tags, `create` and `checkout` return a new [Table](Table.md) handle scoped
-to the branch; writes on it do not affect `main`.
-
-## Methods
-
-### checkout()
-
-```ts
-checkout(name, version?): Promise<Table>
-```
-
-Check out an existing branch and return a handle scoped to it.
-
-With `version` set, the returned handle is pinned to that version of the
-branch (a read-only, detached view); otherwise it tracks the branch's
-latest and stays writable.
-
-#### Parameters
-
-* **name**: `string`
-
-* **version?**: `number`
-
-#### Returns
-
-`Promise`&lt;[`Table`](Table.md)&gt;

-### create()
-
-```ts
-create(
-   name,
-   fromRef?,
-   fromVersion?): Promise<Table>
-```
-

-
-#### Parameters
-
-* **name**: `string`
-    Name of the new branch.
-
-* **fromRef?**: `string`
-    Source branch to fork from. Defaults to `main`.
-
-* **fromVersion?**: `number`
-    A specific version on `fromRef`. Defaults to latest.
-
-#### Returns
-
-`Promise`&lt;[`Table`](Table.md)&gt;
-
-***
-
-### delete()
-
-```ts
-delete(name): Promise<void>
-```
-
-Delete a branch.
-
-#### Parameters

-
-### diff()
-
-```ts
-diff(fromBranch): Promise<BranchDiff>
-```
-
-Compare a branch against main without modifying either branch.
-
-#### Parameters

-
-***
-
-### merge()
-
-```ts
-merge(fromBranch, dryRun): Promise<MergeBranchResult>
-```
-
-Merge a branch into main.
-
-Set `dryRun` to `true` to preview the merge. A rejected merge resolves
-with `status: "rejected"` instead of throwing.
-
-#### Parameters
-
-* **fromBranch**: `string`
-    Branch to merge from.
-
-* **dryRun**: `boolean` = `false`
-    When true, only preview the merge. Defaults to false.

-# Class: Scannable
-
-A data source that can be scanned as a stream of Arrow `RecordBatch`es.
-
-`Scannable` wraps the schema + optional row count + rescannable flag and
-a callback that yields batches one at a time. It is passed to consumers
-(e.g. `Table.add`, `createTable`, `mergeInsert` — follow-up work) that
-need to pull data without materializing the full dataset in JS memory.
-
-Batches cross the JS↔Rust boundary as Arrow IPC Stream messages; a fresh
-writer serializes each batch, and the Rust side decodes it with
-`arrow_ipc::reader::StreamReader`. One batch is in flight at a time.
-
-## Properties

-### numRows
-
-```ts
-readonly numRows: null | number;
-```

-### rescannable
-

-### schema

-```
-
-## Methods
-
-### fromFactory()
-
-```ts
-static fromFactory(
-   schema,
-   factory,
-   opts): Promise<Scannable>
-```
-
-Build a Scannable from an explicit schema and a factory that returns a
-fresh batch iterator on each call.
-
-The factory is invoked once per scan. Each iterator yields
-`RecordBatch`es matching the declared schema. Use this when you need
-direct control over the pull loop — for example, to wrap a streaming
-source whose batches are produced lazily.
-
-#### Parameters
-
-* **schema**: `Schema`&lt;`any`&gt;
-    The Arrow schema of the produced batches.
-
-* **factory**
-    Called at the start of each scan to produce a batch
-    iterator. Must be idempotent when `rescannable` is true.
-
-* **opts**: [`ScannableOptions`](../interfaces/ScannableOptions.md) = `{}`
-    Optional hints. `rescannable` defaults to `true`; set to
-    `false` if calling `factory()` twice would not reproduce the same data.
-
-#### Returns
-
-`Promise`&lt;[`Scannable`](Scannable.md)&gt;
-
-***
-
-### fromIterable()
-
-```ts
-static fromIterable(
-   schema,
-   iter,
-   opts): Promise<Scannable>
-```
-
-Build a Scannable from an iterable of `RecordBatch`es. `rescannable`
-defaults to `false`. Pass an explicit schema so the consumer can
-validate before any batch is pulled.
-
-`opts.rescannable: true` is honest for replayable iterables (Arrays,
-Sets, or custom iterables whose `[Symbol.iterator]()` returns a fresh
-iterator each call). It is rejected for one-shot iterables (generators,
-async generators, or already-an-iterator inputs) because their
-`[Symbol.iterator]()` returns the same exhausted object on the second
-scan. For replayable sources outside this shape, use
-`fromFactory(schema, () => createIter(), { rescannable: true })`.
-
-Note: when `opts.rescannable` is `true`, the constructor calls
-`[Symbol.iterator]()` once on the input to perform the structural check.
-
-#### Parameters
-
-* **schema**: `Schema`&lt;`any`&gt;
-
-* **iter**: `Iterable`&lt;`RecordBatch`&lt;`any`&gt;&gt; \| `AsyncIterable`&lt;`RecordBatch`&lt;`any`&gt;&gt;

-### fromRecordBatchReader()
-
-```ts
-static fromRecordBatchReader(reader, opts): Promise<Scannable>
-```
-
-Build a Scannable from an Arrow `RecordBatchReader`. A reader can only
-be consumed once; `rescannable` defaults to `false`.
-
-The reader must already be opened (via `.open()`) so its `.schema` is
-populated. `RecordBatchReader.from(...)` returns an unopened reader.
-
-`opts.rescannable: true` is rejected because `RecordBatchReader` is a
-self-iterator (its `[Symbol.iterator]()` returns itself), and this
-constructor does not call `reader.reset()` between scans, so a second
-scan would always see an exhausted reader. For genuinely replayable
-sources, use
-`fromFactory(schema, () => openReader(), { rescannable: true })`,
-which mints a fresh reader on each scan.
-
-#### Parameters
-
-* **reader**: `RecordBatchReader`&lt;`any`&gt;
-
-* **opts**: [`ScannableOptions`](../interfaces/ScannableOptions.md) = `{}`
-
-#### Returns

-### fromTable()
-
-```ts
-static fromTable(table, opts): Promise<Scannable>
-```
-
-Build a Scannable from an in-memory Arrow `Table`. Always rescannable;
-the table's batches are replayed on each scan.
-
-The table's row count is authoritative: `opts.numRows` must either be
-omitted or equal to `table.numRows`. `opts.rescannable` of `false` is
-rejected because in-memory Tables are always rescannable.
-
-#### Parameters

-    Note: the LSM scanner does not support every query shape (e.g. reranking,

-   options?): Promise<Connection>
-```
-
-Connect to a LanceDB database through a namespace.
-
-Unlike [connect](connect.md), which routes by URI scheme (local path vs.
-`db://` cloud), `connectNamespace` always returns a namespace-backed
-connection. The `implName` selects the namespace implementation:
-
-- `"dir"` — directory namespace, configured with [DirNamespaceConfig](../interfaces/DirNamespaceConfig.md).
-- `"rest"` — remote REST catalog, configured with [RestNamespaceConfig](../interfaces/RestNamespaceConfig.md).
-- Any other string — full module path for a custom implementation,
-  configured with a free-form string-keyed `properties` map.
-
-### Parameters
-
-* **implName**: `"dir"`
-
-* **config**: [`DirNamespaceConfig`](../interfaces/DirNamespaceConfig.md)
-
-* **options?**: `Partial`&lt;[`ConnectNamespaceOptions`](../interfaces/ConnectNamespaceOptions.md)&gt;
-
-### Returns

-### Examples
-
-```ts
-const db = await connectNamespace("dir", { root: "/path/to/db" });

-# Function: instrumentLanceDbMetrics()
-
-```ts
-function instrumentLanceDbMetrics(meterProvider?): boolean
-```
-
-Register LanceDB metrics as OpenTelemetry observable instruments.
-
-Installs a process-global metrics recorder and creates one observable
-instrument per LanceDB metric (currently object store request counts, bytes,
-latency, errors, and throttles) on the given (or global) `MeterProvider`. The
-configured `MetricReader` then collects them on its own schedule.
-
-Counters and gauges map directly to observable counters/gauges. Because
-OpenTelemetry has no asynchronous histogram instrument, each histogram is
-exported Prometheus-style as cumulative `le` bucket counts (`<name>_bucket`,
-with an `le` attribute) plus `<name>_count` and `<name>_sum`.
-
-Requires `@opentelemetry/api` (a dependency) and, to actually export, an
-OpenTelemetry SDK such as `@opentelemetry/sdk-metrics`.
-
-## Parameters
-
-* **meterProvider?**: `MeterProvider`
-    The provider to register instruments on. Defaults to the
-    global provider from `@opentelemetry/api`.
-
-## Returns
-
-`boolean`
-
-`true` if the recorder is installed and instruments are registered.
-  `false` if a different `metrics` recorder is already installed in this
-  process (only one global recorder is permitted), in which case a warning is
-  emitted and no instruments are created. Calling this more than once is safe;
-  instruments are created only on the first successful call.

-# Interface: RestNamespaceConfig
-
-Configuration for the built-in REST namespace (`"rest"`).
-
-The REST namespace talks to a remote catalog server over HTTP. See
-[https://docs.lancedb.com/namespaces](https://docs.lancedb.com/namespaces) for the documented surface;
-less-common knobs (TLS, metrics) live under
-[RestNamespaceConfig.extraProperties](RestNamespaceConfig.md#extraproperties).

-## Properties
-
-### extraProperties?
-
-```ts
-optional extraProperties: Record<string, string>;
-```
-
-Additional raw properties passed verbatim to the namespace
-implementation (e.g. `tls.*`, `ops_metrics_enabled`, `delimiter`).
-Typed fields above take precedence on key collision.

-### headers?
-
-```ts
-optional headers: Record<string, string>;
