fix: return an error instead of panicking on an empty ident path

[prql-bot]

Ident's Deserialize impl fed the deserialized Vec<String> straight into Ident::from_path, which does path.pop().unwrap() — so an ident serialized as an empty array panicked instead of erroring. That path is reachable from user input via the public json::to_pl / json::to_rq entry points, and from there through the Python (pl_to_prql, pl_to_rq, rq_to_sql) and JS bindings, which contradicts CLAUDE.md's "never panic on user input".

This adds Ident::try_from_path, returning None on an empty path, and has Deserialize map that to serde::de::Error::invalid_length. from_path keeps its panicking signature for the ~25 internal call sites that build idents from static paths, now via .expect — a compiler-bug invariant rather than a user-input path.

Verified on the end-to-end public API: json::to_pl on a document containing {"Ident":[]} panicked at ident.rs:26 before, and now returns Error: invalid length 0, expected an ident with at least one part at line 1 column 118.

Verification

Regression test deserialize_empty_path in prqlc/prqlc-parser/src/parser/pr/ident.rs fails on the pre-fix code with the panic above.

cargo test -p prqlc-parser -p prqlc # 701 passed, 0 failed
cargo clippy -p prqlc-parser --all-targets -- -D warnings # clean
cargo fmt --check -p prqlc-parser # clean

task prqlc:pull-request could not run in the tend sandbox — cargo insta is not on PATH there, which is what #6144 addresses. The plain cargo test runs above cover the same two crates.

[prql-bot]

One thing missing: this is a user-facing change — json::to_pl / json::to_rq and the Python and JS bindings go from a panic to an error on malformed input, and Ident::try_from_path is new public API — so it needs a CHANGELOG.md line under Fixes per development.md ("Contribution workflow → Commits"). #6221 is the same class of fix and carries one. Pushing the entry to this branch rather than leaving it for a maintainer.

Nothing else. Reviewed as a self-authored PR, so no approval — a maintainer's call.

What was checked

The interesting question is whether from_path's new .expect is a genuine compiler-bug invariant (CLAUDE.md allows .expect only for those) rather than a relocated user-input panic. Walked all of its remaining call sites; each builds a path that is non-empty by construction:

• Ident::prepend — parts.extend(self), and an Ident always yields at least its name
• parser/expr.rsident() — parts.push(last) immediately before the call
• semantic/module.rsfind_main — one arm guarded by !path.is_empty(), the other pushes NS_MAIN
• semantic/resolver/stmt.rs — self.current_module_path.push(ident.name) immediately before
• semantic/lowering.rs — the relative path is guarded by relative_to_database.is_empty(); database_module_path defaults to [NS_DEFAULT_DB] in semantic/mod.rs
• the rest are static literals (vec!["std", "select"] and similar)

Also checked for sibling panics on the same deserialization path: Span is the only other hand-written Deserialize in the workspace, and it already returns de::Error::custom rather than panicking, so Ident was the outlier.

cargo test -p prqlc-parser --lib — 101 passed, 0 failed, including the two new tests. That covers the parser crate only; the tests matrix is green on 13fcfa38 for the rest.
