feat(store): add TTL support and harden test coverage to 90.9%

Phase 0 -- Hardening: - Fix SQLITE_BUSY under concurrent writes by setting SetMaxOpenConns(1) and PRAGMA busy_timeout=5000 - Add comprehensive tests: concurrent read/write (10 goroutines), edge cases (unicode, null bytes, SQL injection, long keys), error paths (closed store, invalid paths, corrupt files), group isolation, upsert verification, WAL mode verification, ErrNotFound wrapping - Add benchmarks: Set, Get, GetAll (10K keys), file-backed Set Phase 1 -- TTL Support: - Add expires_at nullable column with schema migration for pre-TTL DBs - SetWithTTL(group, key, value, duration) stores keys that auto-expire - Lazy deletion on Get for expired keys - Background purge goroutine (configurable interval, default 60s) - Public PurgeExpired() method for manual cleanup - Count, GetAll, Render all exclude expired entries - Set clears TTL when overwriting a TTL key Coverage: 73.1% -> 90.9% (48 tests, 0 races) Co-Authored-By: Charon <developers@lethean.io>

 ### Tests

 - 1 test file covering CRUD operations, group isolation, and template rendering
+
+## 2026-02-20: Phase 0 & Phase 1 (Charon)
+
+### Concurrency Fix: SQLITE_BUSY under contention
+
+**Problem:** With `database/sql`'s default connection pool, concurrent goroutines would get different connections from the pool. PRAGMA statements (journal_mode, busy_timeout) are per-connection, so some connections would lack the WAL and busy_timeout settings. Under heavy concurrent writes (10 goroutines x 100 ops), this caused persistent `SQLITE_BUSY` errors even with busy_timeout set.
+
+**Root cause:** `database/sql` pools connections. Each `Exec`/`Query` call might use a different connection. PRAGMAs applied to one connection do not apply to others.
+
+**Fix:** `db.SetMaxOpenConns(1)` serialises all access through a single connection. This ensures PRAGMAs stick and eliminates BUSY errors. SQLite is single-writer by design, so there is no concurrency penalty -- the pool was already being serialised at the SQLite lock level, just with errors instead of queueing.
+
+**Added:** `PRAGMA busy_timeout=5000` as a defence-in-depth measure.
+
+### Coverage: 73.1% -> 90.9%
+
+Remaining uncovered code (9.1%) is entirely defensive error handling in:
+- `New()`: sql.Open error, busy_timeout pragma error, schema creation error -- all unreachable with the modernc.org/sqlite driver under normal operation
+- `GetAll()`/`Render()`: rows.Scan and rows.Err error paths -- require internal SQLite driver corruption to trigger
+
+These are correct defensive checks that protect against hypothetical driver/OS failures but cannot be triggered through integration tests against a real SQLite database.
+
+### Phase 1: TTL Support
+
+Added optional time-to-live for keys:
+- `expires_at INTEGER` nullable column in the `kv` table
+- `SetWithTTL(group, key, value, duration)` stores keys that auto-expire
+- `Get()` performs lazy deletion of expired keys on read
+- `Count()`, `GetAll()`, `Render()` all exclude expired entries from results
+- `PurgeExpired()` public method for manual cleanup
+- Background goroutine purges expired entries every 60 seconds (configurable via `purgeInterval` field)
+- Schema migration: `ALTER TABLE kv ADD COLUMN expires_at INTEGER` handles databases created before TTL support
+- `Set()` clears TTL when overwriting a key (sets `expires_at = NULL`)
+
+### Benchmarks

 ## Phase 0: Hardening & Test Coverage

- [ ] **Expand test coverage** — `store_test.go` exists. Add tests for: concurrent `Set`/`Get` with 10 goroutines (race test), `Render()` with invalid template syntax, `Render()` with missing template vars, `Get()` on non-existent group (vs non-existent key), `DeleteGroup()` then verify `GetAll()` returns empty, `Count()` after bulk inserts, `:memory:` vs file-backed store, WAL mode verification.
- [ ] **Edge cases** — Test: empty key, empty value, empty group, very long key (10K chars), binary-ish value (null bytes), Unicode keys and values.
- [ ] **Benchmark** — `BenchmarkSet`, `BenchmarkGet`, `BenchmarkGetAll` with 10K keys in a group. Measure SQLite WAL write throughput.
- [ ] **`go vet ./...` clean** — Fix any warnings.
+- [x] **Expand test coverage** -- concurrent Set/Get with 10 goroutines (race test), Render() with invalid template syntax, Render() with missing template vars, Get() on non-existent group vs non-existent key, DeleteGroup() then verify GetAll() returns empty, Count() after bulk inserts, :memory: vs file-backed store, WAL mode verification. Coverage: 73.1% -> 90.9%.
+- [x] **Edge cases** -- empty key, empty value, empty group, very long key (10K chars), binary-ish value (null bytes), Unicode keys and values, CJK, Arabic, SQL injection attempts, special characters.
+- [x] **Benchmark** -- BenchmarkSet, BenchmarkGet, BenchmarkGetAll with 10K keys, BenchmarkSet_FileBacked.
+- [x] **`go vet ./...` clean** -- no warnings.
+- [x] **Concurrency fix** -- Added `db.SetMaxOpenConns(1)` and `PRAGMA busy_timeout=5000` to prevent SQLITE_BUSY errors under concurrent writes.

 ## Phase 1: TTL Support

- [ ] Add optional expiry timestamp for keys
- [ ] Background goroutine to purge expired entries
- [ ] `SetWithTTL(group, key, value, duration)` API
- [ ] Lazy expiry check on `Get` as fallback
