lancedb-gatefixer[bot] 7466dc9d1d fix(python): reject embedding source updates without vectors ...

Fixes #4761

`Table.update` does not compute embeddings, so changing an embedding source
column could leave the previous embedding in place. Source-column updates now
raise `ValueError` unless every associated vector column is supplied in the same
call.

The guard reads Python embedding metadata and native `lancedb::column_definitions`
without loading embedding models. It uses Lance's field-path parser for quoted
targets and covers synchronous and asynchronous local and remote tables. Supplying
every associated vector column, vector-only updates, and unrelated updates remain
supported.

This is a breaking change for source-only updates. The API documentation and
Update rows guide explain the requirement and the `merge_insert` alternative for
regenerating embeddings.

Validation at the reviewed head covered 44 targeted public update cases and the
full Python suite (3107 passed, 162 skipped, 70 deselected). All applicable
exact-head checks and workflows completed successfully.
