a8305e0722 fix(rust): accept usize::MAX as a local query limit (#4567)
Fixes #2211.

Local queries converted `limit`/`offset` with `as i64`, so
`limit(usize::MAX)` wrapped to `-1` and Lance failed with `Limit must be
non-negative`. The remote client already worked around this (#2354);
this fixes the local path.

- Saturate scanner offsets to `i64::MAX` and cap limits at `i64::MAX -
offset`, keeping both conversion and full-text pagination addition safe.
- Use `saturating_add` for vector `top_k = limit + offset`, then cap
candidates at the dataset row count to avoid indexed-search capacity and
refinement overflows. Keep a positive candidate bound for empty tables
because Lance rejects `k = 0`.
- Leave public APIs and remote query handling unchanged.

### Testing
- Regression coverage includes plain scans, indexed IVF search,
refinement, index bypass, empty vector tables, and indexed full-text
pagination with finite and extreme limits/offsets.
- Reproduced the indexed-search and FTS overflows before applying the
follow-up fix.
- `cargo test --quiet --features remote -p lancedb --lib query::` — 81
passed.
- `cargo clippy --quiet --features remote -p lancedb --tests --examples`
— clean.
- `cargo fmt --all` and `git diff --check` — clean.

Vector planning now reads the dataset row count (metadata fast path) to
bound candidate allocation; this was not performance-benchmarked.
