What
This commit adds support for Polish language stemming.
Why
The previously used rust-stemmers crate is abandoned and unmaintained, which blocked the addition of new languages. This change addresses a user request for Polish stemming to improve BM25 recall in their use case. The tantivy-stemmers crate is a modern, maintained alternative that also opens the door for supporting many other languages in the future.
