feat(erd): table and column comments from the database as notes #1279

Closed

Description

@ZhuchkaTriplesix

Part of #1286.

Problem

Comments written in the database (COMMENT ON TABLE/COLUMN in PostgreSQL, table_comment / column_comment in MySQL) are the documentation of a schema, and the diagram ignores them. dbdiagram shows notes on tables and columns.

Scope

  • Read comments in the catalog (PostgreSQL pg_description, MySQL information_schema; SQLite has none).
  • A note marker on the header / column row; the text in a tooltip; the table note under the header when the card is selected.
  • Long notes are wrapped and capped in the tooltip.

Acceptance

  • PostgreSQL and MySQL: table and column comments appear as notes.
  • No marker without a comment; SQLite unaffected.
  • Catalog tests per dialect.
