processing.chunk() merges text chunks with one synthetic Chunk per PictureItem-with-bytes,
sorted by iterate_items() position so chunk.order is structural.
embed_chunks dispatches on a Chunk._picture_data PrivateAttr
(text through embed_documents, picture through embed_image_query)
Convert all LanceDB operations from sync calls wrapped in async
functions to the native async API (connect_async, AsyncConnection,
AsyncTable, AsyncQuery). Database I/O no longer blocks the event loop.
- Store and HaikuRAG use async context managers (async with). Store
initialization is deferred to __aenter__; direct construction
without async with is no longer supported.
- Index creation uses config objects (FTS, BTree, IvfPq) instead of
string-based index_type parameter.
- Upgrade callbacks are async.
- HaikuRAG tracks background vacuum tasks and awaits them in __aexit__
and before destructive rebuild operations to avoid races with
concurrent table mutations.
- temp_db_path fixture uses pytest's tmp_path for reliable async
cleanup.
Replace get_document() and get_docling_document() with a VFS at
/documents/{id}/ with metadata.json (eager), content.txt (lazy),
and items.jsonl (lazy). Keep search(), list_documents() (now returns
all), and llm() as external functions.

Context expansion is now automatic and structure-aware. For structured
documents, expands within the section containing the match. For sections
that exceed the budget or are too small, expands item-by-item outward
skipping noise labels. Unstructured documents use budget-based outward
expansion. Results sorted by relevance score.
