Description

We currently require an application to explicitly call sync() to synchronize an embedded replica. Let's explore ways to make the sync happen automatically in the background.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate methods for automatic background synchronization of embedded replicas in libSQL. Consider approaches like periodic polling, event driven triggers, or database hooks. Evaluate trade offs in performance and consistency.
