Description
I'm looking at inserting 100s of millions of rows into libSQL/SQLite. I've been wondering if one way to optimize that would be to get rid of:
- building those huge strings with
INSERT ... VALUES - having to parse strings those on libsql side
Ideally, there would be some db.Insert(table, [row1, row2]) API that allows to avoid going through SQL layer.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the existing INSERT and SQL parsing paths in libSQL/SQLite, then determine the API and implementation scope needed to support bulk row insertion without SQL text; done should include a defined interface and evidence that it avoids the stated overhead.
