In earlier PRs (#1886, #1191) we made the default limit 10 regardless of the query type. This was confusing for users and in many cases a breaking change. Users would have queries that used to return all results, but instead only returned the first 10, causing silent bugs. Part of the cause was consistency: the Python sync API seems to have always had a limit of 10, while newer APIs (Python async and Nodejs) didn't. This PR sets the default limit only for searches (vector search, FTS), while letting scans (even with filters) be unbounded. It does this consistently for all SDKs. Fixes #1983 Fixes #1852 Fixes #2141

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
