Added a small bit of documentation for the `dim` feature which is provided by the new `text-embedding-3` model series that allows users to shorten an embedding. Happy to discuss a bit on the phrasing but I struggled quite a bit with getting it to work so wanted to help others who might want to use the newer model too
LanceDB Documentation
LanceDB docs are deployed to https://lancedb.github.io/lancedb/.
Docs is built and deployed automatically by Github Actions
whenever a commit is pushed to the main branch. So it is possible for the docs to show
unreleased features.

cd docs
mkdocs serve
