Xuanwo 22bf091de1 fix: avoid manifest writes for read-only directory namespace opens (#3635)
Bumps Lance to v9.0.0-beta.19, which includes lance-format/lance#7687
for side-effect-free DirectoryNamespace read paths.

This fixes root-level read-only table opens that previously could
trigger `__manifest` creation through directory namespace construction,
including Hugging Face bucket reads with read-only tokens. A LanceDB
regression test now covers root listing operations without creating
`__manifest`.

Fixes #3633.

LanceDB Python SDK

A Python library for LanceDB.

Installation

pip install lancedb

Preview Releases

Stable releases are created about every 2 weeks. For the latest features and bug fixes, you can install the preview release. These releases receive the same level of testing as stable releases, but are not guaranteed to be available for more than 6 months after they are released. Once your application is stable, we recommend switching to stable releases.

pip install --pre --extra-index-url https://pypi.fury.io/lancedb/ lancedb
