Scores are explained in vectorestore docs (#5613)
# Scores in Vectorestores' Docs Are Explained

Following vectorestores can return scores with similar documents by
using `similarity_search_with_score`:
- chroma
- docarray_hnsw
- docarray_in_memory
- faiss
- myscale
- qdrant
- supabase
- vectara
- weaviate

However, in documents, these scores were either not explained at all or
explained in a way that could lead to misunderstandings (e.g., FAISS).
For instance in FAISS document: if we consider the score returned by the
function as a similarity score, we understand that a document returning
a higher score is more similar to the source document. However, since
the scores returned by the function are distance scores, we should
understand that smaller scores correspond to more similar documents.

For the libraries other than Vectara, I wrote the scores they use by
investigating from the source libraries. Since I couldn't be certain
about the score metric used by Vectara, I didn't make any changes in its
documentation. The links mentioned in Vectara's documentation became
broken due to updates, so I replaced them with working ones.
