Various small scoring changes

[BCathcart]

Pulling out some changes from existing PRs that attempted a new locking strategy. I think we need to pivot now (#1358 (comment)) but these changes are still relevant.

• Skips unnecessary main-thread revalidation/recompute for no-content FT.AGGREGATE queries.
• Implements FT.AGGREGATE ADDSCORES, exposing each document's relevance score as __score in the aggregation pipeline
• Adds main thread scoring-recompute integration tests
• Some small renaming and refactoring

Note there are some suspected compatibility issues for ADDSCORES which are tracked in #1387.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds FT.AGGREGATE ADDSCORES support for non-vector queries, exposes scores as __score, skips unnecessary content processing, refines scoring metadata access, and adds cluster tests for score recomputation during mutations.

Changes

Aggregate scoring flow

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Aggregate score pipeline src/commands/ft_aggregate*, testing/ft_aggregate_parser_test.cc, integration/test_aggregate_addscores.py	ADDSCORES now exposes neighbor scores as __score. The field can be loaded and sorted. No-content aggregate queries preserve the score without fetching document content.
Scoring metadata and query evaluation src/indexes/text/*, src/index_schema.h, src/query/search.*	Posting statistics now use PostingDocStats. Text-index locking uses explicit flags. Solved queries skip redundant prefilter evaluation. NOCONTENT processing can bypass the main-thread path when no SORTBY is present.
Cluster scoring validation integration/test_scoring_cluster.py, testing/search_test.cc	Cluster helpers now parse aggregate and no-content replies. Tests cover score recomputation with mutations, aggregate content loading, and search sorting behavior.
