Will Jones fce45ba9fc feat(nodejs): add listTables, deprecate tableNames (#4041 )

`table_names` is being replaced by `list_tables` across the SDKs, but
TypeScript only had `tableNames`. This PR adds `listTables`, which
returns a page of table names together with the token that resumes after
it, and marks `tableNames` and `TableNamesOptions` deprecated in favor
of it.

It binds the `Connection::list_tables` that already exists, so nothing
in the Rust API changes and nothing existing breaks. `pageToken` is
documented as opaque rather than as a table name, since what resumes a
listing is the database's to decide — that keeps callers off a detail
that is going to change.

Stacked on #4040, which fixes a table being dropped at every page
boundary. The page-walking test here needs that fix to pass. Review the
last commit only until #4040 lands.

## Example

```ts
const names = [];
let pageToken = undefined;
do {
  const page = await conn.listTables({ pageToken, limit: 100 });
  names.push(...page.tables);
  pageToken = page.pageToken;
} while (pageToken);
```

A namespace can be listed by passing its path first, mirroring
`tableNames`:

```ts
const page = await conn.listTables(["analytics"], { limit: 100 });
```
