+/**
+ * Core's Module Database ABI v1 executor (ADR 0050).
+ *
+ * A module hands Core SQL text, ordered parameter values, and a row mode; Core hands back decoded
+ * rows, column metadata, and stable errors. No ORM, driver, pool, client, or connection object ever
+ * crosses in either direction. The executor is built over the one pool the API already owns
+ * (ADR 0016) and never closes it.
+ *
+ * This is a correctness and compatibility boundary, **not a security sandbox**: a trusted module can
+ * still send any SQL its database role permits. Nothing here inspects table names.
+ *
+ * ### Connections and session state
+ *
+ * Every ABI operation, a top-level statement or a whole transaction, borrows a connection from the
+ * pool, pins the session settings the ABI's decoding depends on, does its work, and resets the
+ * session with `DISCARD ALL` before returning the connection. So no setting, temporary table,
+ * listener, advisory lock, prepared statement, or role change a module makes survives the operation
+ * that made it, and nothing the ABI pinned reaches the pool's other users. A connection that cannot
+ * be reset cleanly, or that is not idle when the operation ends, is destroyed rather than returned.
+ * `DISCARD ALL` also deallocates named prepared statements; Core uses none on the shared pool.
+ *
+ * ### One statement per `query`
+ *
+ * Every ABI statement is sent with PostgreSQL's extended query protocol, forced with the driver's
+ * `queryMode: "extended"` even when there are no parameters. PostgreSQL itself refuses a Parse
+ * message holding more than one statement (SQLSTATE 42601), using its own SQL grammar, so comments,
+ * quoted literals, and semicolons inside them are never mistaken for a second statement. Core does
+ * not parse SQL. A statement text that holds no statement at all is refused after PostgreSQL reports
+ * it empty.
+ *
+ * ### Transaction control belongs to Core
+ *
+ * A statement whose command tag is transaction control (`BEGIN`, `START`, `COMMIT`, `ROLLBACK`,
+ * `SAVEPOINT`, `RELEASE`, `PREPARE`), or that leaves the connection's transaction status other than
+ * expected, is refused. PostgreSQL has already run it by then, so inside a transaction it also marks
+ * the transaction failed: Core rolls back and never commits it. The command tag and the protocol's
+ * transaction status come from PostgreSQL, not from parsing the SQL.

+A further suite (`core/tests/module-database-abi.integration.ts`, same harness) proves Core's Module
+Database ABI v1 executor against real PostgreSQL
+([ADR 0050](../architecture/decisions/0050-module-database-abi-v1.md)). Nothing it asserts is mocked,
+because every claim is a property of PostgreSQL or of the protocol:
+- one statement per `query`, enforced by PostgreSQL's extended protocol rather than by parsing, so
+  semicolons inside literals, identifiers, and comments are never mistaken for a second statement;
+- every allowed parameter category bound exactly, and every refused one refused before PostgreSQL
+  sees it;
+- the decoding table for each type the ADR names;
+- PostgreSQL's SQLSTATE preserved while its message, detail, constraint, and values are hidden;
+- commit, rollback, isolation levels, read-only, no retries, and an aborted transaction never being
+  committed;
+- callback-scoped savepoints;
+- a forgotten `await` rolling back instead of committing;
+- revoked executors reaching nothing.
+
+The suite's database is created with deliberately hostile defaults: a non-UTC time zone, a non-ISO
+date style, `sql_standard` intervals, `escape` bytea output, and reduced float digits. So every
+decoding assertion also proves the executor pins its own session settings. The pool-safety cases use
+a one-connection pool, which proves the next borrower gets a connection with exactly the database's
+defaults after every failure class: no transaction, setting, temporary table, listener, or advisory
+lock carries over. The same is true after a connection the server terminated. Parameter validation,
+decoding from text, option validation, error sanitization, and scope bookkeeping are also unit-tested
+without a database in `core/tests/module-database-abi.test.ts`.
