Enables two new parameters when building indices:
* `name`: Allows explicitly setting a name on the index. Default is
`{col_name}_idx`.
* `train` (default `True`): When set to `False`, an empty index will be
immediately created.
The upgrade of Lance means there are also additional behaviors from
cd76a993b8:
* When a scalar index is created on a Table, it will be kept around even
if all rows are deleted or updated.
* Scalar indices can be created on empty tables. They will default to
`train=False` if the table is empty.

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
