Corrects claims that drifted from the code: variable-length float vectors render fully since lance-format#14 (the old text said schema-only with corruption warnings), there is no 2048-dimension preview limit, and the 0.29.2 image installs pyarrow >=16,<22 rather than a single pinned version. Makes 0.29.2 the recommendation throughout (the tip and the compose example still pointed at 0.24.3), documents the release image tags added in lance-format#46 (latest, stable, v{version}, app-{version}_lancedb-{v}), adds instructions for running the test suite from lance-format#28, and links CONTRIBUTING.md and CHANGELOG.md. Fixes lance-format#51

Summary
Brings the README back in line with the code.
Corrections:
pa.list_(pa.float32())) were schema-only and might show corruption warnings. They render fully since feat/fix: Support for FixedSizeList vectors, nested schemas, and UI text wrapping #14, and the test suite from test: add API endpoint tests #28 exercises them on all six Lance versions.Consistency and additions:
latest,stable,v{app version},app-{version}_lancedb-{version}) so users can pin to an app release.Test plan
Fixes #51
