Jack Ye f305a05fd4 fix: preserve adaptive IVF probe defaults (#4168)
Keep IVF probe fields unset by default so Lance supplies adaptive
behavior. Preserve `nprobes`, `minimum_nprobes`, and `maximum_nprobes`
independently through Rust, Python, namespace, and remote request
construction, with compatibility fields serialized only when explicitly
configured.

The final Rust namespace and LSM propagation update depends on the Lance
release containing lance-format/lance#9184.

Usage

Basic Example

import * as lancedb from "@lancedb/lancedb";
const db = await lancedb.connect("data/sample-lancedb");
const table = await db.createTable("my_table", [
  { id: 1, vector: [0.1, 1.0], item: "foo", price: 10.0 },
  { id: 2, vector: [3.9, 0.5], item: "bar", price: 20.0 },
]);
const results = await table.vectorSearch([0.1, 0.3]).limit(20).toArray();
console.log(results);

The quickstart contains more complete examples.
