`RemoteTable::list_indices` currently makes one `/index/list/` call plus
one `/index/{name}/stats/` call per index just to recover `index_type`.
When the server returns `index_type` directly in the `/index/list/`
response, all enriched fields are used and the per-index stats fan-out
is skipped entirely. When `index_type` is absent (legacy servers), the
existing stats fallback runs as before. This is content-based: no
version header required.
## Changes
- `RemoteTable::parse_index_list_response` replaces the old split
between enriched and legacy parsers. A single struct deserializes both
old and new response shapes, with all fields except `index_name` and
`columns` optional. `index_type` acts as the sentinel: present → use
enriched fields directly; absent → call `/index/{name}/stats/`.
## Tests
Added `test_list_indices_enriched` covering:
- All enriched fields populated correctly when `index_type` is in the
list response
- Optional fields absent from the response deserialize as `None`
- Stats endpoint is **not** called (panics if hit), verifying the
fan-out is eliminated
Existing `test_list_indices` and `test_list_indices_nested_field_paths`
exercise the legacy path unchanged.
## Depends on
- #3497 (expand `IndexConfig`) — already merged
- Server-side enriched response support
Closes #3494
