Jack Ye 19f8f396ec docs: consolidate pages that were split for no reason
Ten merges and renames, all in one direction: fewer pages, each covering a whole
subject.

Table absorbs schema evolution and versioning. Vector search absorbs
multi-vector. Explain absorbs explain analyze. Reranking was seven pages -- an
overview and six rerankers of a few dozen lines each -- and is now one. The
vector index page absorbs quantization, which was only ever a parameter of it.

Indexing moves to Manage, where the other catalog objects are. The operational
half stays in Operate as one Indexing page, absorbing GPU indexing -- which was
filed in sophon despite importing lancedb's snippets and being mostly
open-source content with one Enterprise-badged section.

Performance was a single page aggregating tips for four unrelated operations,
which is hard to keep current. Each section now sits with the operation it is
about: ingestion tips on Insert, index tips on Indexing, compaction tips on
Compaction, query tips on Search.

Data Types leaves Concepts. The type reference belongs in the SQL reference,
which already described the same types from the query side; Table now carries a
short summary that points there. The multimodal material it had absorbed is its
own page again, since storing blobs is a task rather than a type definition.

Query becomes Semantic Search, Branches becomes Branch, and the Enterprise
Security page becomes Compliance.

Redirects cover every moved URL, and 30 files were repointed at the merged
anchors.
