Docs: the database through SeaORM

CLAUDE.md and the architecture notes described the SQL schema and migrate(),
both gone: the entities are the schema, create_missing makes what is missing,
and hand-written SQL has to run on SQLite and Postgres both.

-Schema changes: add the table or column to `SCHEMA`. `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS` leaves a table

+Schema changes: the tables are the entities in `src/entity.rs`, and `Db::open` creates whatever
+table or index a database is missing from them (`db::create_missing`), with `IF NOT EXISTS`. It
+never alters a table that exists, so a new column on one needs its own `ALTER` in
+`create_missing`, or `sea-orm-migration` once there are several. `Db::memory()` builds its
+database the same way, so the tests run on the schema production gets. A database from before
+0.7 takes its last columns from the old `migrate()`, so it upgrades through a 0.7 release first.
