fix: SQLite uses DELETE mode on WSL2 Windows filesystem (GH#920)

Auto-detect WSL2 environment with Windows filesystem paths (/mnt/c/, etc.)
and fall back to DELETE journal mode instead of WAL. SQLite WAL mode
does not work reliably across the WSL2/Windows 9P filesystem boundary
due to shared-memory limitations.

Detection checks:
1. Path matches /mnt/[a-z]/ pattern (Windows drive mount)
2. /proc/version contains microsoft or wsl

Fixes #920
