What this PR does / why we need it:

V3's retriever construction was silently ignoring rescore_oversample. V2 honored it (lines 483-486, 617-620) but V3 never added rescore_vector to its kNN clauses. On quantized indices (int8_hnsw / int4_hnsw / bbq_hnsw), this meant V3 queries returned lower recall than the config promised, with no error or warning.

Wire rescore_oversample into each kNN retriever the same way V2 does. Covers single-vector and multi-vector V3 queries; BM25 retrievers skip the branch since they lack a "knn" key.

Existing config validation (lines 102-127) already prevents rescore on non-quantized indices, so no new validation needed.

Added three unit tests in TestRetrieveOnlineDocumentsV3QueryBuilding:

  • rescore_vector appears in single-vector query body when configured
  • rescore_vector appears on every kNN retriever in multi-vector query
  • rescore_vector absent when rescore_oversample is None

* fix: Valkey vector search - remove unsupported SORTBY (#356)

* fix: Valkey vector search - remove unsupported SORTBY and fix tag filter syntax

Valkey Search KNN queries return results pre-sorted by distance, so
explicit SORTBY is not supported and causes a ResponseError. This removes
the .sort_by() call from the query builder.

Additionally, fixes the project tag filter to use unquoted syntax with
backslash escaping for special characters (e.g. hyphens, dots) instead
of the quoted syntax which was returning empty results.

Updates unit tests to reflect both changes: replaces three metric-specific
sort order tests with a single test asserting no SORTBY is set, and
updates escaping assertions to match the new backslash-escape approach.

* feat: Quantization support for elastic search (#355)

* feat: implement retrieve_online_documents_v3 SDK method
  - Multi-vector search with configurable fusion (RRF, WEIGHTED_LINEAR, VECTOR_ONLY) via the ES retriever API. Valkey gracefully degrades to single-vector KNN with warnings.
  - "embedding" magic key for V2→V3 migration convenience
  - Reserved output fields: final_score, signal_scores
  - include_signal_scores and distance_metric accepted as reserved params
  - ODFV and reserved-name collision validation
  - Shared signal_scores encoding via _signal_scores helper

* docs: clarify final_score semantics in Valkey V3 docstring

Correct the Valkey final_score description — Valkey's __distance__ is
lower-is-better across all metrics (COSINE, L2, IP), not higher-is-better
for IP. Call out the ordering inversion vs Elasticsearch so callers don't
assume cross-backend score portability.

* fix: plumb include_signal_scores through V3 and align defaults to False

Valkey/ES/provider/passthrough/online-store defaults were True, mismatching
the SDK's False default. Align all layers on False and thread the parameter
from retrieve_online_documents_v3 through the internal dispatcher, provider,
and online stores so callers can opt in today and transparently pick up the
explain-based per-signal path when it lands — no API change required.

Tighten docstrings to describe the current best-effort behavior instead of
hinting at latency tradeoffs that aren't wired yet.

* updating doc string

* fix: preserve ranked row order in V3 retrieve_online_documents

_retrieve_from_online_store_v3 was passing the driver's ranked rows
through _get_unique_entities_from_values, which sorts and dedupes by
entity-key bytes. That helper is correct for batch entity lookups but
wrong here — ES/Valkey have already ordered rows by relevance, and the
sort was scrambling them in the final DataFrame (e.g. doc_10 jumping
ahead of doc_3 because "10" < "3" lexicographically).

Replace the helper call with an identity mapping so the driver's rank
order flows through untouched. No change to V1, V2, batch reads, or
the helper itself; V3 output now matches the order returned by the
online store.
