Description
Currently, there is a special case during transaction conflict resolution to handle read errors due to missing versions and succeed.
This should be removed as the transaction may conflict with old versions which have been cleaned up. The transaction should fail instead.

Research direction
Read rust/lance/src/io/commit.rs around line 753 and trace the special case for read errors caused by missing versions during transaction conflict resolution. Done means the first transaction attempt reports a conflict when required old versions are missing, rather than succeeding through that special case.
