Description
Add ways to retrieve information about sizes, e.g.:
- database size on disk
- current size limit on disk
- information about free space in the current file. This is not trivial and could be e.g. based on free pages and pages with capacity. Might be an approximation. Could be a percentage or an absolute number.
- optional(?): approximate remaining capacity until we reach max size (and/or disk limit). Details tbd...

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Begin by reviewing the existing database API and how storage limits and free space are represented, then resolve which measurements are required and whether free space may be approximate. Done means the selected size and capacity information is exposed with agreed semantics and covered by tests.
