LanceDB patch provenance

This artifact vendors the Lance 11.0.0-beta.2 Rust workspace from Lance commit 35da5d920159b49d1b53032652f7615ab699c160. The complete workspace keeps all mutually coupled Lance crates on one Cargo source identity when lancedb consumes the pinned artifact commit.

The local patch makes AWS credential-family merging atomic before backend selection and teaches the built-in OpenDAL S3 path to refresh credential-only storage options. Keeping the change inside AwsStoreProvider leaves arbitrary registry providers and their complete ObjectStore results untouched. Remove this patch when the same behavior is available in the pinned Lance release.
