Release v1.3.0

Added

• Global database helpers integrating the codemonster-ru/database package:
  • db() — returns the active database connection
  • schema() — returns schema builder for the selected connection
  • transaction() — executes callbacks inside a DB transaction
• Full PHPUnit test coverage for:
  • db() helper
  • schema() helper
  • With isolated DatabaseManager and fake container bindings
• Support for SQLite, MySQL and future drivers automatically via ConnectionInterface::schema().

Changed

• SupportFakeContainer updated for correct behavior with database helpers:
  • singleton() is now eager, ensuring immediate instance creation
  • Improved compatibility with Annabel-style lazy container contracts
  • Fully stable integration with request/view/db helpers
• Strengthened test isolation:
  • reset() now clears both bindings and instances
  • All tests run without requiring the Annabel framework

Fixed

• schema() test failing due to instantiation of an abstract Grammar class
  → Now resolved automatically by the database package selecting proper driver grammar.
• DB helper now correctly bootstraps connection configuration even without other framework components.
