Description
Related page / section: https://developer.matomo.org/guides/database-schema#visit-actions
idaction_event_category and idaction_event_action are missing from this section (whereas they are mentioned in Action Types > Referencing action types section)
idaction_name: the ID of the page title action type for this action in case of page view, of the event name in case of custom event, of the search keyword in case of search event
search_cat: the search category in case of search event
search_count: the number of search results in case of search event
idaction_event_category: the ID of the event category action type for this action (in case of custom event)
idaction_event_action: the ID of the event action action type for this action (in case of custom event)
Without this, it is not easy to understand the data model especially that idaction_name can be used for different types of events...

Research direction
Start with the database schema's visit-actions section at the linked documentation page and compare it with the Action Types > Referencing action types section. Update the log_link_visit_action description to explain idaction_event_category and idaction_event_action, including that they apply to custom events and how they relate to idaction_name.
