execute_write_fn(fn, block=False) is documented to return "a UUID representing
the queued task". Two things stopped that being true.
_send_to_write_thread() derived the id from uuid.uuid5(NAMESPACE_DNS,
"datasette.io"), which is deterministic, so every non-blocking write in every
database in every process returned 3f143baa-4e3d-5842-a36f-4fa2f683b72f. A
constant cannot identify a particular task. Now uuid4(). Refs #2860.
With num_sql_threads=0 there is no write thread, so execute_write_fn took the
synchronous branch and `result` was the write function's return value, normally
None. The block=False path then unpacked it unconditionally and raised
TypeError: cannot unpack non-iterable NoneType object. The non-threaded branch
now returns the same (task_id, reply_future) shape, with the future already
resolved because the write has finished, so both modes share one code path.
Refs #2859.
test_execute_write_fn_block_false only asserted isinstance(task_id, uuid.UUID),
which a constant satisfies. The new test is parametrized over threaded and
non-threaded and asserts two calls return different ids, so either regression
fails it.
* Run datasette serve startup and uvicorn on a single event loop
* Move the serve-subprocess test plumbing into a conftest fixture
* Fix datasette-litestream URL and trim marker-task test comments
* Explain why serve_with_plugins needs a subprocess and plugin files
* Apply ruff 0.16 and black fixes
* Tweaked some comments
Several internal helpers quoted table names using SQLite [bracket]
identifiers built with an f-string, e.g. PRAGMA foreign_key_list([{table}]).
Bracket quoting cannot escape a "]" character, so any table whose name
contains "]" (for example "[foo]" or "foo]") produced
"sqlite3.OperationalError: unrecognized token" - crashing schema
introspection at startup and 500-ing the table page.
Switch these call sites to the existing escape_sqlite() helper, which uses
"double quote" quoting with correct "" escaping (the same approach already
used elsewhere in the codebase and in the test suite):
- utils/internal_db.py: PRAGMA foreign_key_list / index_list
- utils/__init__.py: get_outbound_foreign_keys
- database.py: table_counts count query
- facets.py: default "select * from" SQL
Added a regression test covering table names with "]" characters.

Reverts the object envelope introduced in 1.0a36 for this endpoint -
it once again returns a top-level JSON array of plugin objects.
Closes#2842
