//! Multi-table `Database` container (spec §5, §6, §10).
//!
//! Owns the shared services — catalog, dual-counter epoch authority, shared
//! raw/decoded page caches, snapshot-retention registry, and the DB-wide KEK —
//! and mounts per-table [`Table`] engines under `tables/<id>/` that borrow them.
//! P1 scope: per-table WALs remain (collapsed into one shared WAL in P2); the
//! win here is one consistent commit clock across tables and one reopen path.
