- Add foreignKeyTargetsPath to create table page data
- Filter hidden tables from database-level foreign key target results
- Update JSON API docs and tests for filtered targets
Returns a list of tables with a single primary key, and for each one
the name of that primary key column and its SQLite type affinity.
This will be used by the create table UI to suggest foreign keys.
- Add add_foreign_key, drop_foreign_key, and set_foreign_keys operations.
- Validate flat fk_table and fk_column arguments with Pydantic.
- Document the API and cover inferred primary-key and validation cases.
- Add fk_table and optional fk_column support to create-table columns.
- Validate create-table requests with Pydantic while preserving existing errors.
- Document the API and cover inferred primary-key and validation cases.

- Add POST /<database>/<table>/-/alter with Pydantic validation and dry-run support.
- Support add, rename, alter, drop, primary-key and reorder operations, including allow-listed default expressions.
- Document the endpoint and cover schema changes, validation, permissions, events and dry runs.

Review of the generated ?_extra= documentation found several extras
with no example output or with examples that needed explanation:
- extras: now shows an abbreviated example of the toggle list and has
a clearer description (which also improves the live API output)
- set_column_type_ui: example of the shape seen with set-column-type
permission, plus a note that it is null otherwise
- column_types: live example generated from a table with an assigned
column type instead of an empty {}
- metadata: live table example now demonstrates a table description
and column descriptions; row and query examples gained explanatory
notes
- expandable_columns, foreign_key_tables, facets_timed_out, next_url,
renderers: notes explaining the shape of their output
Also added docs_note cross-references to the relevant documentation:
facets, pagination, render_cell and register_output_renderer plugin
hooks, column type configuration and API, metadata, custom templates,
permissions and foreign key label expansion. foreign_key_tables is
now flagged as potentially executing additional queries.

These three extras return values that exist for the HTML templates -
a Filters instance, an async function and markupsafe/sqlite3.Row data
- so requesting them on a .json page returned a 500 serialization
error, while the generated documentation and ?_extra=extras both
advertised them as API surface. They are now public=False: ignored
like any unknown name on JSON requests, omitted from the docs and the
extras list, and still resolved for the HTML view via the new
include_internal flag on ExtraRegistry.resolve().

* Fix for execute write returning, closes#2762
* Fix stored write returning rowcount message
* Add configurable execute_write returning limit
* Return rows/truncated from execute query if it used RETURNING
* INSERT ... RETURNING shows rows in /-/execute-write
* Skip RETURNING tests if SQLite version does not support it

Expand the unreleased changelog with the deny-by-default operation analysis model, SQL function handling, and the VACUUM and virtual/shadow table restrictions for user-supplied write SQL.
Clarify the /-/execute-write JSON API documentation with the same restrictions and DDL permission requirements.
