Kerman LauandXuanwo 0dd78656b9 fix(python): honor explicit OpenAI reranker API keys (#4515)
Fixes #4514

## Summary
Honor an explicitly supplied `OpenaiReranker(api_key=...)` before
falling back to `OPENAI_API_KEY`, matching the constructor
documentation. Previously the environment key always won when both were
set, so an instance configured for a different account still used the
process-wide account.

## Tests
Added four cases using real OpenAI client construction without sending
requests: explicit/environment conflict, explicit key alone, environment
fallback, and missing credentials. The conflict case fails before the
change; all four pass afterward. Clients are closed after each
assertion.

- Targeted source-module tests: 4 passed.
- Ruff check and format check: passed for both changed files.
- Full native source build was attempted but failed because the
environment has no Rust toolchain; bootstrap then attempted a cache path
outside the writable workspace. The targeted tests load the current
Python reranker module against installed dependencies and the released
LanceDB package; no database/native behavior is exercised. Full
native/integration suite not run.

This change and its tests were prepared with an AI coding agent. The
diff was reviewed and the failure/pass behavior verified locally.
