Wyatt Alt a6418b6cb9 feat: create_index returns a Job handle (#3742)
IndexBuilder::execute now returns a Job with wait and cancel methods.
Local tables build the index synchronously and return an already-done
job. Remote tables read the job id the server returns from create_index
and track it through the /v1/jobs API: wait polls describe until the job
reaches a terminal state and cancel posts a cancellation. Servers that
return no job id yield a done job, so behavior against older servers is
unchanged. The job id is not exposed on the handle.

The Python and TypeScript bindings keep their current signatures and
discard the handle; exposing Job there is left to follow-ups.
