//! `sqlite-core` — native, read-only, panic-free `SQLite` file-format reader.
//!
//! Parses the 100-byte file header (magic + page size), walks table b-trees
//! (interior + leaf) yielding rows as typed [`Value`]s, reassembles
//! overflow-page chains for large payloads, walks the freelist
//! ([`Database::freelist_pages`]), and applies a read-only `-wal` overlay
//! ([`Database::open_with_wal`]) — all bounds-checked and panic-free on crafted
//! input. [`Database::carve_cells`] recognizes record-shaped cells in
//! free/unallocated space for the analyzer's deleted-record recovery. The bespoke
//! [`WalTimeline`] ([`Database::wal_timeline`]) models a `-wal` as a salt-bounded
//! segment of materializable [`CommitSnapshot`]s for "carve all snapshots".
//!
//! Format constants are consumed from [`forensicnomicon::sqlite`] (the KNOWLEDGE
//! leaf), including the page-1 header field offsets (reserved-space 20, in-header
//! DB-size 28, freelist-count 36, text-encoding 56) promoted there in §3.1.
//! Index-b-tree LEAF reading is a foundation
//! ([`Database::index_leaf_cells`], roadmap §1.4) — the second substrate for a
//! table's data and the storage of `WITHOUT ROWID` rows; carving DELETED index
//! entries and following index-key overflow remain follow-ups.
//! (UTF-16 text decoding and WAL frame-checksum verification are implemented.)
