Summary

Closes: #7830 (it was already closed but now it will be extra closed).

See #7830 (comment) for why we are removing this. To summarize: lossy compression / quantization doesn't really make sense in Vortex at all.

Also removes the vector search benchmark that benchmarked this implementation of TurboQuant.

API Changes

Removes TurboQuant completely from the codebase.
