Chris LuandClaude Opus 5.5 d72f761d83 seaweed-vector: work on its defaults, and without identities or credentials (#12323)
* seaweed-vector: default --namespace to the gateway's Lance port

The old default, http://localhost:8888/lance, is a path nothing serves:
the Lance Namespace listens on its own port, 9101 by default on weed s3,
weed server, weed filer and weed mini. With it, the filer answered the
engine's catalog calls with a 500 and every CreateIndex failed with
InternalFailure.

* seaweed-vector: default --listen to a port no SeaweedFS server takes

127.0.0.1:8080 is the volume server's default port, so weed-vector next
to weed server exited with "Address already in use (os error 98)". 8090
is not among the defaults of master, volume, filer, S3 and its Iceberg
and Lance catalogs, IAM, WebDAV, SFTP, the message queue broker and
agent, the admin server or weed mini, nor any of their gRPC ports
(HTTP + 10000).

* lance: take any key while the S3 server runs without identities

Without identities the S3 port accepts any signature and treats the
caller as the admin. The Lance catalog still checked an x-api-key or
Bearer token against identities that did not exist, so weed-vector
started with --storage-option credentials on such a server got 401 on
every catalog call. The catalog now skips both checks when S3 auth is
off and leaves the caller to the S3 authenticator, which admits it as
the admin, as it already did for a request with no key. With
identities configured nothing changes: an unknown key is still 401.

* lance: tell clients to skip signing while S3 auth is off

A client with no credentials of its own could not reach a table's data
on a server without identities, though the S3 port takes unsigned
requests there: lance fell back to the AWS default credential chain and
failed with CredentialsNotLoaded. weed-vector without --storage-option
failed every CreateIndex that way. The catalog now adds
aws_skip_signature to the storage options it hands out while S3 auth is
off, and leaves it out once identities exist.

* seaweed-vector: bind the listener before registering with the master

The engine spawned its master registration and then bound --listen, so
an engine whose port was taken could reach the master before it exited:
on weed server with 18080 taken the master logged "vector node
127.0.0.1:18080 added" and removed it in the same millisecond, and the
gateway noticed it. Bind first, and name the address in the error
instead of "transport error".

* seaweed-worker: keep an unsigned store off the AWS default chain

A store the catalog says takes unsigned requests needs no credentials,
but lance builds the AWS default credential chain for any store without
them, and the chain probes instance metadata on every dataset open.
With no credentials of its own, weed-vector spent a second on each
query (1030-1066 ms against 32-46 ms with --storage-option ones). The
merge of the operator's fallback and the vended options, which the
engine and the Lance worker each did in their own copy, moves into
table_options, and gives such a store empty credentials.

* test(s3vectors): serve an index with no identities and no engine credentials

A second cluster runs weed s3 without -config and weed-vector without
--storage-option, with no AWS credentials in either environment: weed s3
would turn them into an admin identity, and the engine would find them.
On master its CreateIndex fails with InternalFailure.
