The method existed only to raise NotImplementedError, since
full-text search is not supported for views, and it showed up in
the generated API reference as a documented View method. Calling
enable_fts() on a View now raises AttributeError like any other
missing method. The sqlite-utils enable-fts command uses db.table()
and shows a clean error when pointed at a view instead of a
traceback.

New top-level 'Transactions and saving your changes' section in the
Python API documentation, stating the fundamental contract up
front: every write method commits its own changes before returning,
no commit() call is ever needed. The db.atomic() documentation
moves under it, alongside new subsections covering the two cases
where the user owns the commit - raw db.execute() writes and
manually managed transactions - and the supported connection modes.
Cross-referenced from Getting started (the first insert example now
says the rows are saved immediately), a warning on db.execute(),
the closing-a-database section and the upgrading guide.
