Description
Is it possible to sync an existing local.db file? With https://github.com/tursodatabase/libsql/issues/1145 it simply throw an error because there's no WAL index file
I'm using libsql as a local database in a desktop app, so users can start using the app with just a local.db file, later they can configure a sync url and sync the existing local database with the remote one.

Start by reviewing the reported behavior for an existing local.db file and the related libsql issue 1145 about the missing WAL index file. Determine the required behavior for configuring a sync URL after local use, and define completion as successfully syncing that existing database without the reported error.
