Ed Rogers d0ce489b21 fix: use stdlib override when possible (#2699)
## Description of changes

Fixes #2698  

This PR uses
[`typing.override`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.override)
in favor of the [`overrides`](https://pypi.org/project/overrides/)
dependency when possible. As of Python 3.12, the standard library offers
`typing.override` to perform a static check on overridden methods.

### Motivation

Currently, `overrides` is incompatible with Python 3.14. As a result,
any package that attempts to import `overrides` using Python 3.14+ will
raise an `AttributeError`. An
[issue](https://github.com/mkorpela/overrides/issues/127) has been
raised and a [pull
request](https://github.com/mkorpela/overrides/pull/133) has been
submitted to the GitHub repo for the `overrides` project. But the
maintainer has been unresponsive.

To ensure readiness for Python 3.14, this package (and any other package
directly depending on `overrides`) should consider using
`typing.override` instead.

### Impact

The standard library added `typing.override` as of 3.12. As a result,
this change will affect only users of Python 3.12+. Previous versions
will continue to rely on `overrides`. Notably, the standard library
implementation is slightly different than that of `overrides`. A
thorough discussion of those differences is shown in [PEP
698](https://peps.python.org/pep-0698/), and it is also summarized
nicely by the maintainer of `overrides`
[here](https://github.com/mkorpela/overrides/issues/126#issuecomment-2401327116).

There are 2 main ways that switching from `overrides` to
`typing.override` will have an impact on developers of this repo.
1. `typing.override` does not implement any runtime checking. Instead,
it provides information to type checkers.
2. The stdlib does not provide a mixin class to enforce override
decorators on child classes. (Their reasoning for this is explained in
[the PEP](https://peps.python.org/pep-0698/).) This PR disables that
behavior entirely by replacing the `EnforceOverrides`.

LanceDB

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

Usage

Basic Example

import lancedb
db = lancedb.connect('<PATH_TO_LANCEDB_DATASET>')
table = db.open_table('my_table')
results = table.search([0.1, 0.3]).limit(20).to_list()
print(results)

Development
