Highlights

• Build can auto-download matching prebuilt libduckdb via DUCKDB_DOWNLOAD_LIB=1.
• Appenders now support column subsets and column switching; defaults/NULLs fill the rest.
• Table functions can store extra info via the new register_table_function_with_extra_info.
• Scalar functions can be marked volatile using the volatile trait method.
• Logical type coverage broadened (new DuckDB IDs, Unsupported fallback).
• Updated bundled DuckDB to v1.4.3
