This PR supports create index for vector array (now, only for
`DataType.FLOAT_VECTOR`) and search on it.
The index type supported in this PR is `EMB_LIST_HNSW` and the metric
type is `MAX_SIM` only.
The way to use it:
```python
milvus_client = MilvusClient("xxx:19530")
schema = milvus_client.create_schema(enable_dynamic_field=True, auto_id=True)
...
struct_schema = milvus_client.create_struct_array_field_schema("struct_array_field")
...
struct_schema.add_field("struct_float_vec", DataType.ARRAY_OF_VECTOR, element_type=DataType.FLOAT_VECTOR, dim=128, max_capacity=1000)
...
schema.add_struct_array_field(struct_schema)
index_params = milvus_client.prepare_index_params()
index_params.add_index(field_name="struct_float_vec", index_type="EMB_LIST_HNSW", metric_type="MAX_SIM", index_params={"nlist": 128})
...
milvus_client.create_index(COLLECTION_NAME, schema=schema, index_params=index_params)
```
Note: This PR uses `Lims` to convey offsets of the vector array to
knowhere where vectors of multiple vector arrays are concatenated and we
need offsets to specify which vectors belong to which vector array.

This pr adds full-support for wildcard pattern matching from end to end.
Before this pr, the users can only use prefix match in their expression,
for example, "like 'prefix%'". With this pr, more flexible syntax can be
combined.
To do so, this pr makes these changes:
- 1. support regex query both on index and raw data;
- 2. translate the pattern matching to regex query, so that it can be
handled by the regex query logic;
- 3. loose the limit of the expression parsing, which allows general
pattern matching syntax;
With the support of regex query in segcore backend, we can also add
mysql-like `REGEXP` syntax later easily.
