- Add the missing changelog bullet for the HTTP request span - the most
user-visible signal in the stack had no entry.
- State the deliberate deviation on server.address: it is the verbatim
Host header including any :port, not the semconv address/port split.
- Deduplicate the is_recording()-vs-is_valid rationale: the middleware
fast path keeps the full telling, request_span() now points at it.
- Trim the http.route regex rationale in the docs intro to a pointer at
the attribute description, halve the httpx raw_path digression, drop
a comment that restated the call below it, and leave client-IP policy
to the privacy section instead of the user_agent description.
- Assert the routed 404 still carries http.route and an enriched span
name - route enrichment must not be gated on a successful response.

Simon's review: `table=` was a new parameter on the public `execute()`
signature that had no effect on execution - it existed only to set the
`db.collection.name` span attribute.
Removing it takes the whole attribute out of phase 1. `db.query` spans
keep `db.namespace`, `db.query.text`, `db.operation.name` and the rest;
`db.collection.name` returns in a later PR once there is a mechanism
worth committing to in the public API.
Side effect worth having: this PR no longer touches `views/table.py` or
`views/row.py` at all - both files are now byte-identical to main - so
it is purely the database layer it claims to be.
The registry conformance tests already enforce the rest: an attribute
left in `telemetry_registry` but never emitted fails
`test_every_registered_attribute_is_emitted`, so the registry entry, the
generated docs block and the workload that reached it all come out
together.

The database instrumentation covered the four SQL-string entry points but
not the callback entry points, which are the documented way for plugins to
run arbitrary SQL - so the JSON write API's inserts and deletes, the
startup catalog scan, and every plugin built on execute_fn/execute_write_fn
were invisible to a trace, or worse, showed orphan-looking db.write.* spans
with no db.query above them.
Each callback method now opens the same db.query CLIENT span as its
SQL-string sibling, carrying a new optional datasette.callback attribute
(the callable's qualified name, captured before _wrap_fn_with_hooks() can
rename it) in place of db.query.text, which is now marked optional. A bare
execute_fn() also wraps the callback in a db.query.execute child, so the
"gap between the spans is thread-wait" story holds for plugin callbacks
too. No db.operation.name: there is no statement to take a keyword from,
and the registry says that attribute is omitted rather than guessed.
The previous bodies move to private _execute_fn()/_execute_write_fn() and
the SQL-string methods call those, so an execute() emits exactly the spans
it did before - pinned by test_execute_does_not_double_wrap. Database's own
introspection helpers stay on the public method deliberately: they are real
SQLite round trips, which lifts a table page from ~58 to ~100 (no-op) spans.

- Remove the registry's unused prefix=True slot, its span_for() branch,
its doc-rendering case and its test - nothing in the stack sets it.
- Stop promising a "later phase" query-duration metric dimension in the
db.operation.name description; the cardinality rationale stands alone.
- Replace baked-in benchmark numbers in the telemetry module docstring
with the docs' own phrasing (below run-to-run variation).
- Compact the duplicated copy_context() and enqueue-site comments in
database.py to pointers at their canonical tellings.
- Make the "catch people out" gotchas skimmable as a bullet list and
give the changelog's "nothing is removed" line a clear antecedent.
- Add a test that a result cut short by max_returned_rows records
datasette.truncated=True - previously only ever asserted False.

The span reference itself is generated from the registry, so this adds the
prose the generated list cannot supply: how to actually see a span, what is
deliberately never recorded, and where the instrumentation stops short.
The "how to turn it on" part is the part people get wrong. Core installs no
provider, so OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER=console against a plain `datasette` process
emits nothing at all - that variable is read by the SDK auto-configuration
which only runs under `opentelemetry-instrument`. Documented as a warning
because it reads like a bug when you hit it. Two more measured facts get the
same treatment: the SDK's BatchSpanProcessor default schedule delay is 5000ms
(checked, not assumed - `BatchSpanProcessor._default_schedule_delay_millis()`
on opentelemetry-sdk 1.44), so nothing appears for five seconds; and without
OTEL_SERVICE_NAME the default resource reports service.name=unknown_service.
Privacy properties are stated positively rather than left implicit: SQL
truncated at 2048 characters, parameter values never recorded, no actor
identifiers, table names only from an explicit `table=` argument. The last of
those is now documented on db.execute() itself, since it is public API.
The limitations section claims only what was measured. An earlier draft said
two traces per process are orphaned by the register_output_renderer and
asgi_wrapper hooks; measuring it showed a default install emits zero spans
from either, because Datasette queries no database there - it is a plugin
that would produce the orphan. Corrected to say that.
It also deliberately does NOT say an embedder must install its provider
before Datasette's first span or get nothing. That claim is false:
ProxyTracer._tracer returns the no-op tracer without caching it when no
provider is set, so early spans are dropped and nothing is poisoned.
The telemetry.py docstring said no-op spans "cost approximately nothing".
The benchmark for this diff does not support a claim that strong - a table
page emits ~58 spans - so it now states the measurement instead: median
9.80ms to 9.98ms across 15 runs, inside a 1.4ms run-to-run spread.

www.starlette.io and www.uvicorn.org no longer resolve (NXDOMAIN); both
projects now publish their documentation at starlette.dev and uvicorn.dev
respectively. The Docker Hub link was missing the /r/ path segment, which
returns a 404.
- docs/plugin_hooks.rst: www.starlette.io/middleware/ -> starlette.dev/middleware/
- docs/changelog.rst (x3): www.uvicorn.org/ -> uvicorn.dev/
- docs/changelog.rst: hub.docker.com/datasetteproject/... -> hub.docker.com/r/datasetteproject/...
All four replacement URLs verified to return HTTP 200.
The alias existed so API payloads could mirror the params key used by
queries defined in datasette.yaml, but it was undocumented and untested,
and the create endpoint is not part of the stable API. The API now only
accepts parameters - sending params is a 400 Invalid keys error. The
documented params key for queries in configuration is unchanged.

Documents the canonical error format, the ok/envelope changes, the
array-to-object endpoint conversions, 401s for invalid tokens, the
pagination and page-size unification, removed legacy keys and formats,
and the new Response.error(), TokenInvalid, count_truncated and
