## Problem
Sustained memory overcommitment is one of the failure patterns that most
often leads to databases being killed when the system runs out of
memory. Today the database report only shows used memory against total
RAM, which hides the kernel's commit accounting: a project can sit far
above its commit limit (RAM plus swap, adjusted by the overcommit ratio)
and the dashboard gives no signal until something breaks.
A combined chart with swap, overcommitment, and main memory was
considered too dense, and a standalone swap chart was not useful enough
on its own.
Linear: [DEBUG-119](https://linear.app/supabase/issue/DEBUG-119)
## Fix
Adds a separate "Memory commitment" chart between the existing memory
usage and swap charts. It plots `ram_commit_used` (Committed_AS) as the
main series with `ram_commit_limit` (CommitLimit) as the max-value
threshold line, so values approaching or crossing the limit are visually
obvious. Backend support for the two new metric attributes ships in
supabase/platform#33321.
## How to test
- Wait for the platform PR (supabase/platform#33321) to deploy so the
two new attributes are accepted by the infra monitoring endpoint.
- Open any project, navigate to Database -> Reports.
- Confirm the new "Memory commitment" chart appears between "Memory
usage" and "Swap usage".
- Confirm the chart shows two series: the committed memory bars/area and
a max line for the commit limit.
- Hover the legend and the chart to confirm the tooltips read clearly.
- Confirm the time range selector and chart sync (`syncId:
'database-reports'`) keep this chart aligned with the others.
