lancedb-gatefixer[bot] e6789a4118 fix: support system columns in DataFusion table adapters (#4667)
DataFusion plans SQL against the adapter's declared schema, which
omitted `_rowid` and `_rowaddr` even though Lance can project both. SQL
therefore rejected these columns before reaching the scan.

Add `BaseTableAdapter::with_system_columns` to opt into either column
using Lance's nullable `UInt64` fields. Scans without a projection now
select the full declared column list so their output matches the
provider schema. Default adapters retain data-only `SELECT *` and remain
compatible with `INSERT INTO ... SELECT *`; opted-in adapters include
the requested system columns in `SELECT *`.

Regression tests compare SQL results with native queries and cover
projection order, system-only projections, row-ID predicates, scans
without a projection, duplicate/unsupported names, and default SQL
inserts.

Validation:

- DataFusion unit suite: 436 tests passed with `cargo test --locked
--quiet --profile ci -p lancedb --features remote --lib
table::datafusion`.
- `cargo clippy --locked --quiet --profile ci -p lancedb --features
remote --tests --examples -- -D warnings` passed.
- The new builder's documentation example passed its doctest.
- `cargo fmt --all -- --check` and `git diff --check` passed.

Fixes #4666
