Utkarash Kumar SinghandJoshen Lim 08c0fc247b feat(studio): warn about pg_graphql introspection change on upgrade (#46096)

## Summary

Adds an in-product admonition on the Infrastructure Settings page when a
project has pg_graphql < 1.6.0 installed, warning users that GraphQL
introspection will be disabled by default after upgrading. Links to
upgrade notes docs with the opt-in SQL.

The admonition is purely informational — it renders alongside the
upgrade button, does not block the upgrade.

## Context

pg_graphql 1.6.0 disables GraphQL introspection by default. The change
is upgrade-triggered (not backported), so users on 1.5.x will only
encounter it when their AMI bundles 1.6.0+. To prevent surprise breakage
of tools that rely on `__schema`/`__type` (GraphiQL, codegen, Relay
compiler, etc.), Studio surfaces this admonition before they upgrade.

Design discussion in
[PSQL-1199](https://linear.app/supabase/issue/PSQL-1199/prepare-dashboard-notification-for-pg-graphql-breaking-change).

## Companion PR

This depends on the schema change in
[supabase/platform#32954](https://github.com/supabase/platform/pull/32954)
which adds the new `warnings` field to
`ProjectUpgradeEligibilityResponse`.

## Admonition copy

- **Title:** \"GraphQL introspection will be disabled by default after
upgrade\"
- **Body:** \"After upgrading, queries to \`__schema\` and \`__type\`
will return an error unless introspection is explicitly re-enabled on
the schema. Regular data queries are not affected.\"
- **CTA:** \"Read upgrade notes\" → links to the new docs section

Maintainers

If you are a maintainer of any tools in the Supabase ecosystem, you can use this site to provide documentation for the tools & libraries that you maintain.

Versioning

All tools have versioned docs, which are kept in separate folders. For example, the CLI has the following folders and files:

  • cli: the "next" release.
  • cli_spec: contains the DocSpec for the "next" release (see below).
  • cli_versioned_docs: a version of the documentation for every release (including the most current version).
  • cli_versioned_sidebars: a version of the sidebar for every release (including the most current version).

When you release a new version of a tool, you should also release a new version of the docs. You can do this via the command line. For example, if you just released the CLI version 1.0.1:

npm run cli:version 1.0.1

DocSpec

We use documentation specifications which can be used to generate human-readable docs.

  • OpenAPI: for documenting API endpoints.
  • SDKSpec (custom to Supabase): for SDKs and client libraries.
  • ConfigSpec (custom to Supabase): for configuration options.
  • CLISpec (custom to Supabase): for CLI commands and usage.

The benefit of using custom specifications is that we can generate many other types from a strict schema (eg, HTML and manpages). It also means that we can switch to any documentation system we want. On this site we use Next.js, but on Supabase's official website, we use a custom React site and expose only a subset of the available API for each tool.
