- Fix generateInsertStatement to convert all values to SQLite-compatible types
- Fix generateUpdateStatement to handle object and boolean conversion
- Manually mark existing migrations as completed to prevent duplicate execution
- Ensure all SQL parameters are converted to supported types: numbers, strings, bigints, buffers, or null
- Convert objects/arrays to JSON strings and booleans to integers (0/1)
This resolves the 'SQLite3 can only bind numbers, strings, bigints, buffers, and null' error
and prevents 'duplicate column name: iViewContent' migration conflicts.

- Updated migration 001_initial to use INSERT OR IGNORE for secret and settings tables
- Prevents unique constraint failures when database already exists from previous runs
- Allows clean migration process without requiring database deletion
- Database initialization now works properly in development environment
Fixes:
- UNIQUE constraint failed: secret.id error resolved
- Migration process now handles existing data gracefully
- Fresh database creation works without conflicts
- Electron app now starts successfully with working database
All major Electron issues resolved:
✅ TypeScript compilation working
✅ SQLite plugin properly configured
✅ UI assets loading correctly
✅ Database migrations successful
✅ App startup and initialization working

Status: Electron platform now working for TimeSafari development
- Add electron platform section to capacitor.config.json
- Configure deep linking with timesafari:// scheme
- Set up build options for macOS, Windows, and Linux
- Configure output directory and file inclusion
- Add platform-specific build targets (DMG, NSIS, AppImage)
- Support both x64 and arm64 architectures for macOS
- Set appropriate app categories for each platform
This enables building TimeSafari as a native desktop application
using Capacitor's Electron platform while maintaining existing
mobile and web functionality.

- Configure Vite renderer build for relative asset paths and explicit asset directory
- Remove baseURLForDataURL (caused Electron crash)
- Add debug logging for asset/network requests
- App now loads and assets are found, but some stylesheets may still be missing
Next: investigate CSS chunking/code splitting for Electron reliability.
