changes.

### Upgrade Notes
- **Retrieval rankings change, for the better.** The default fusion weights
move from `0.7/0.3` to `0.4/0.6` (`hybrid::DEFAULT_FUSION`), measured over the
full LongMemEval haystack: turn-level Hit@1 51.6% vs 44.2%, MRR 0.643 vs
0.586. `unified_search` and the OpenClaw backend pick this up automatically;
callers passing weights to `hybrid_search` explicitly are unaffected.
- **Out-of-range selections are now errors.** `read_*_selection` used to return
data for a selection that ran past a dataset edge — a hyperslab came back
zero-padded, and a point with an out-of-range coordinate wrapped into the
next row. Both are now `FormatError::SelectionOutOfBounds`. Code relying on
the old (wrong) values will start seeing errors.
- **Large compressed datasets written without explicit chunk dimensions get a
different layout.** They used to be stored as one chunk; they are now split
to ~1 MiB chunks. The files stay standard and h5py-readable, and explicit
`with_chunks` is unaffected.
- `rayon` is now a default dependency of `clawhdf5-agent` (the parallel index
build). Opt out with `--no-default-features --features float16,hnsw`.
- `clawhdf5-ann` search results no longer shrink when records near the query
have been deleted, so a search that previously returned fewer than `k`
results now returns `k`.
