test: prove module database access with PostgreSQL

Add a real installed-module fixture (core/tests/fixtures/module-database-integration/db-facade) with its own manifest, Drizzle schema, drizzle-kit-generated migration, and permissioned HTTP routes, then exercise it end to end in a new apps/api PostgreSQL integration suite: explicit migration application before the module runtime starts (never auto-created), start/stop/HTTP handlers sharing one ModuleDatabase facade by reference, authorized read/mutation/transaction commit and rollback against real PostgreSQL, denied/rejected-origin/OPTIONS/HEAD requests never reaching the module or its table, and both a module-caught and an uncaught real database failure sanitizing exactly as pass 1 established. Registered alongside the existing suites in vitest.migrations.integration.config.ts; no production code, schema, or migration changed.

+/**
+ * Proves `ModuleRuntimeServices.database` against real PostgreSQL: an installed test module
+ * (`core/tests/fixtures/module-database-integration/db-facade/`) whose lifecycle hooks and
+ * permissioned HTTP handlers perform real typed Drizzle operations — insert, select, update,
+ * transaction, execute — against its own migrated table, exclusively through the facade the
+ * platform hands it. Follows the exact harness conventions `apps/api/tests/api-http.integration.ts`
+ * and `core/tests/postgres-migration.integration.ts` already establish (self-contained per-file
+ * helpers, one disposable PostgreSQL database per scenario, `describe.sequential` blocks sharing a
+ * running API across related assertions) rather than introducing a second integration-test
+ * framework or Docker orchestration path.
+ *
+ * The fixture module is committed under `core/tests/fixtures/...`, not `apps/api/tests/fixtures/`,
+ * for one concrete reason: its schema imports `drizzle-orm/pg-core` and `@ekklesia/contracts`,
+ * neither of which `@ekklesia/api` declares as a direct dependency (pnpm's strict linker will not
+ * resolve them from anywhere under `apps/api/`), while `@ekklesia/core` already depends on both
+ * directly, so any file physically located under `core/`'s directory tree resolves them correctly
+ * regardless of which package's test actually points discovery at it. It is never registered as a
+ * pnpm workspace package (it matches none of `pnpm-workspace.yaml`'s glob patterns), never sits in
+ * the repository's live `modules/` directory, and is only ever discovered when this file explicitly
+ * passes its directory as `modulesDirectoryOverride` — normal production startup, Doctor, and
+ * `pnpm modules:validate` never see it.
