Brendan Clement 52eed381bb ci: add an advisory Vale check for documentation prose (#4581)
Checks `docs/web` against the shared LanceDB style rules, so the same
mechanical mistakes reach review.

**Change.**

- Add `.vale.ini`, pinning the shared LanceDB Vale package by release
(`vale-lancedb-v0.1.0`), and ignore the synced `.vale/` directory.
- Add the Docs prose style workflow. On pull requests that change
`docs/web` pages or `.vale.ini`, it annotates only added or changed
lines and never fails on a style finding; an install, sync or
configuration error still fails it.
- Link the style guide from `CONTRIBUTING.md` and show how to check a
page locally.


Validation: Tested in [temporary PR
#4595](https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb/pull/4595). Vale flagged all
five deliberate style issues on the changed prose lines, left inline
code and unchanged lines alone, and kept the check green. [Passing
