This PR introduces sparse vectors support and jaccard distance
implementation.
Also, this PR restructure the code to have all vector operations in
separate files (they grow pretty quickly as new vector representations
added to the DB).
Closes#3647
I found an application in the open that expects sqlite_version() to
return a specific string (higher than 3.8...).
We had tons of those issues at Scylla, and the lesson was that you
tell your kids not to lie, but when life hits, well... you lie.
We'll add a new function, turso_version, that tells the truth.
SQLite surprisingly supports this:
select sqlite_version(*);
this gets translated at the parser level to sqlite_version(), and it
works for all functions that take 0 arguments.
Let's be compatible with SQLite and support the same thing.
Support for attaching databases. The main difference from SQLite is that
we support an arbitrary number of attached databases, and we are not
bound to just 100ish.
We for now only support read-only databases. We open them as read-only,
but also, to keep things simple, we don't patch any of the insert
machinery to resolve foreign tables. So if an insert is tried on an
attached database, it will just fail with a "no such table" error - this
is perfect for now.
The code in core/translate/attach.rs is written by Claude, who also
played a key part in the boilerplate for stuff like the .databases
command and extending the pragma database_list, and also aided me in
the test cases.
This PR provides Euclidean distance support for limbo's vector search.
At the same time, some type abstractions are introduced, such as
`DistanceCalculator`, etc. This is because I hope to unify the current
vector module in the future to make it more structured, clearer, and
more extensible.
While practicing Euclidean distance for Limbo, I discovered that many
checks could be done using the type system or in advance, rather than
waiting until the distance is calculated. By building these checks into
the type system or doing them ahead of time, this would allow us to
explore more efficient computations, such as automatic vectorization or
SIMD acceleration, which is future work.

I keep having 3+ PR's in at the same time and always deal with crazy
conflicts because everything in the `ext` library is together in one
file.
This PR moves each category of extension into its own file, and
separates the `vfs` functionality in Core into the `ext/dynamic` module,
so that it can be more easily separated from wasm (or non feature =
"fs") targets to prevent build issues.
The only semantic changes made in this PR is the feature gating of vfs,
the rest is simply organizing and cleaning up imports.
Was unsure if `vfs` should be a feature on the `core` side too, or to
just enable it with the `fs` feature which seemed reasonable, as that
was already the current behavior. But let me know if we want it entirely
behind it's own feature.
