Brendan ClementandClaude Opus 5.5 ca343a5c06 docs: fix table, accuracy and structure problems found in the pre-launch review (#4745)
## Summary

Fixes the problems a page-by-page review of the docs found before
launch, after checking each one against the current source and, where
noted, the code. The matching fixes for the dataset and Geneva pages,
which live in `lancedb/docs`, are in lancedb/docs#402.

**Tables**
- `integrations/embedding/cohere`: each input-type description was split
across two table rows and wrapped in literal quotes
(`"`search_document`"`). Now one row per type.
- `integrations/embedding/gemini`: removes the same stray quotes from
the task-type table.
- `integrations/ai/langchain`: the MMR search table's `kwargs` row was
missing a cell, so its description sat under Type.
- Six reranker pages (answerdotai, cohere, colbert, jina, openai,
voyageai): closes the backtick before `_relevance_score`.
- `indexing/vector-index`: finishes a cell cut off at "with scalar".
- `sql/dql/dedupe`: labels the empty header cell in the resolution
table.

**Corrections**
- `curation/sampling`: sampling works in LanceDB Embedded through the
Python SDK, so the page is available in both, with the SQL sections
marked Enterprise.
- `feature-engineering/index`, `add-computed-column`: automatic refresh
is on by default for each computed column and takes effect once a
deployment enables its scheduler. `refresh-column` already said so;
these two implied it was off.
- `indexing/scalar-index`, `indexing/index`: `LABEL_LIST` accelerates
`array_has_all`/`array_has_any`; `array_contains_*` doesn't exist. Also
merges scalar-index's two "nested fields" sections into one.
- `integrations/embedding/ibm`: lists the four current models from
`CURRENT_MODELS` (it listed a deprecated one) and explains that the
default stays a legacy ID so existing tables reload with their model.
- `integrations/reranking/openai`: the class is `OpenaiReranker`, not
`OpenAI()`.
- `integrations/ai/synthetic-data-kit`: the CLI is `synthetic-data-kit`
throughout, each step runs one command, each step passes the file it
writes to the next, and `save-as` uses `-f`/`-o`.
- `integrations/data/dlt`: `secrets.toml` defines `api_token`, which the
pipeline reads, and the run command runs the file the page creates.
- `search/vector-search`: the multivector walkthrough connected to
Enterprise in step 1 and a local path in step 2. It now runs locally
throughout, with a note on connecting to Enterprise, and is renamed so
it doesn't read as a duplicate of the short section above.

**Structure and wording**
- `integrations/embedding/nvidia`: adds headings, and drops test-suite
details aimed at contributors.
- `integrations/ai/genkit`: makes the retrieval test a real heading and
describes the query step.
- `integrations/data/voxel51`: replaces a raw MkDocs `!!! note` with a
`<Note>`.
- `sql/ddl/table`, `sql/ddl/job`: "Errors and limits" is a real heading,
not bold text.
- `curation/windowing`: sidebar title matches the curation overview
("Rank and Deduplicate").
- `deployment/storage`, `basics/agentic-skills`: fixes a garbled
sentence and a stale reference to the quickstart.


**Checked:** no new Vale alerts on the changed pages. Assembled together
with lancedb/docs#402, the site passes `mint validate` and `mint
broken-links --check-anchors --check-redirects`. Every changed page was
reviewed in a local preview.
