This pull request is an implementation of vector data type similar to one used by Apache Cassandra.
The patch contains:
- implementation of vector_type_impl class
- necessary functionalities similar to other data types
- support for serialization and deserialization of vectors
- support for Lua and JSON format
- valid CQL syntax for `vector<>` type
- `type_parser` support for vectors
- expression adjustments such as:
- add `collection_constructor::style_type::vector`
- rename `collection_constructor::style_type::list` to `collection_constructor::style_type::list_or_vector`
- vector type encoding (for drivers)
- unit tests
- cassandra compatibility tests
- necessary documentation

This commit adds the information about SStable version support in 2025.1
by replacing "2022.2" with "2022.2 and above".
In addition, this commit removes information about versions that are
no longer supported.

Add missing vector type documentation including: definition of vector,
adjustment of term definition, JSON encoding, Lua and cql3 type
mapping, vector dimension limit, and keyword specification.
"me" sstable format includes an important feature of storing the
`host_id` of the local node when writing sstables. The is crucial
for validating the sstable's `replay_position` in stats metadata as
it is valid only on the originating node and shard (#10080), therefor
we would like to make the `me` format mandatory.
before making `me` mandatory, we need to stop handling `sstable_format`
option if it is "md".
in this change
- gms/feature_service: do not disable `ME_SSTABLE_FORMAT` even if
`sstable_format` is configured with "md". and in that case, instead,
a warning is printed in the logging message to note that
this setting is not valid anymore.
- docs/architecture/sstable: note that "me" is used by default now.
after this change, "sstable_format" will only accept "me" if it's
explicitly configured. and when a server with this change joins a
cluster, it uses "md" if the any of the node in the cluster still has
`sstable_format`. practically, this change makes "me" mandatory
in a 6.x cluster, assuming this change will be included in 6.x
releases.

Now that the documentation is versioned, we can remove
the .. versionadded:: and .. versionchanged:: information
(especially that the latter is hard to maintain and now
outdated), as well as the outdated information about
experimental features in very old releases.
This commit removes that information and nothing else.
Closes#13680
