perf(read): consolidate driver-side Dataset opens and pin version for… (#567)

… snapshot isolation

## Summary

Consolidate the two driver-side `Dataset.open()` calls during scan
planning into one, and pin the resolved table version onto the read
options shipped to executors. This reduces manifest IO and closes a
cross-task snapshot-isolation gap on large tables.

## Motivation

For each Spark scan, `LanceScanBuilder.build()` opens a dataset to read
manifest summary, schema, sharding spec, and zonemap stats. Then
`LanceScan.planInputPartitions()` opens the dataset *again* via
`LanceSplit.planScan(readOptions)` to enumerate fragments and
per-fragment row counts.

Two issues:

1. **Performance** — Driver pays the manifest IO / `Dataset.open()` cost
twice per query. On very large tables this measurably increases planning
latency.
2. **Snapshot isolation bug** — When the user does not specify a
version, both opens resolve "latest" independently. If a concurrent
writer commits a new version between the two opens (or between the
driver-side open and an executor-side open), tasks can observe a newer
version than the one used for fragment pruning / statistics. The query
then sees an inconsistent view.

## Changes

### `LanceSplit`
- New overload `planScan(Dataset)` that accepts an already-opened
dataset and does not close it.
- Existing `planScan(LanceSparkReadOptions)` becomes a thin wrapper,
kept for tests and external callers.

### `LanceScanBuilder.build()`
- Calls `LanceSplit.planScan(dataset)` against the same handle used for
manifest / zonemap loading, before `closeLazyDataset()`.
- Calls `readOptions.withVersion(resolvedVersion)` to produce a pinned,
immutable copy of the read options.
- Passes the pre-computed splits, per-fragment row counts, and pinned
options to `LanceScan`.

### `LanceScan`
- Constructor accepts `precomputedSplits` and
`precomputedFragmentRowCounts`.
- `planInputPartitions()` no longer opens the dataset; it consumes the
pre-computed result and skips the redundant `withVersion` wrap (the
options are already pinned upstream).
- The per-fragment row-count map is marked `transient` so it does not
bloat plan-tree serialization or affect `BatchScanExec` /
`ReusedExchange` comparisons.

### Tests
- `LanceScanTest` updated for the new constructor parameters.
- `LanceSplitTest` unchanged — both overloads remain covered.

## Why this is safe

- `LanceSparkReadOptions.withVersion(...)` returns a new instance via
the existing builder; the user-supplied options object is never mutated.
- When the user explicitly pinned a version upstream,
`dataset.getVersion().getId()` returns that same version, so the pin is
a no-op.
- All existing pruning paths (`pruneByRowAddrFilters`,
`pruneByZonemapStats`, `pruneByLimit`) continue to operate on the same
`List<LanceSplit>` shape; only the source of the list changed.

## Performance impact

- Driver `Dataset.open()` calls per scan: **2 → 1**.
- Manifest reads per scan: **2 → 1**.
- No change to executor-side IO.

## Correctness impact

- All tasks of a single query are now guaranteed to read the same
dataset version, even under concurrent writes.
