chore: sync changes; fix Ruff import order; update examples, benchmarks, and dependencies

- Fix import order in packages/leann-backend-hnsw/leann_backend_hnsw/hnsw_backend.py (Ruff I001)

- Update benchmarks/run_evaluation.py

- Update apps/base_rag_example.py and leann-core API usage

- Add benchmarks/data/README.md

- Update uv.lock

- Misc cleanup

- Note: added paru-bin as an embedded git repo; consider making it a submodule (git rm --cached paru-bin) if unintended
