feat: Add production-ready array support v0.2.3

🎉 Major Feature Release: First-class Array Support

✨ Added:
- Native StringArray, IntArray, FloatArray types with full type safety
- driver.Valuer/sql.Scanner implementation for seamless database integration
- GormDataType() interface for automatic schema generation
- Automatic DDL generation for TEXT[], BIGINT[], DOUBLE[] column types
- Comprehensive array CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete)
- Full test suite covering arrays, edge cases, and error handling
- Complete documentation with usage examples

🔧 Technical Implementation:
- Custom array types implement driver.Valuer and sql.Scanner interfaces
- GORM integration via GormDataType() interface method
- Automatic conversion between Go slices and DuckDB array literals
- Proper handling of nil arrays, empty arrays, and string escaping
- Compatible with DuckDB array functions and operators

🎯 Impact:
- First GORM driver with native, type-safe array functionality
- Perfect for analytics, data science, and modern applications
- Maintains full backward compatibility
- Production-ready with comprehensive test coverage

📊 Array Types:
- duckdb.StringArray → TEXT[]
- duckdb.IntArray → BIGINT[]
- duckdb.FloatArray → DOUBLE[]

All tests passing ✅ Ready for production use 🚀
