[Feature] Support flink distributed vector search #8825

Description

Search before asking

  • I searched in the issues and found nothing similar.

Motivation

Flink’s vector_search procedure currently performs vector candidate search locally in the procedure process. For large tables with many index splits, raw data ranges, or primary-key buckets, this limits scalability and prevents the search from utilizing cluster resources.

Solution

Add an optional distributed execution mode for Flink vector search. Large searches are dispatched to a bounded Flink job and merged into a global TopK result, while small searches retain the existing local execution path to avoid unnecessary job startup overhead.
