roadmap: prioritize advanced search features (v1.1-v2.0)

- v1.1: Advanced Search (hybrid search, reranking, pagination, caching) - TOP PRIORITY
- v1.2: Migration & Backup (migrate_to, clone_to, fork, backup/restore, list-to-scalar)
- v1.3: Advanced Migration (incremental sync, multi-region, differential backup)
- v1.4: Developer Experience (async/await, streaming, interactive query builder)
- v2.0: Additional Backends (Pinecone, Weaviate, Qdrant, MongoDB, Elasticsearch)

Advanced search features prioritized as v1.1 for immediate production value
