Research direction

No source file or test is named. Start by reviewing the WebWorker database lifecycle and the documentation referenced in the issue, then determine how sql.js exposes database deletion and recreation. Done means a web-worker user can reset the database without clearing the browser cache, with behavior documented and tested.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Sorry if this is an obvious answer, I scanned through the docs, I couldn't see anything obvious where using the web worker I could delete and recreate the db file. There's obviously some cases where migrations go wrong, and would need to nuke the db. (Rather than telling users to go and clear the website cache :)

For extra reference, we use sql.js via Sql Delight (WasmJs Kotlin Multiplatform)
