Adds a note to the "Using Custom Schemas" guide:
`createClient<Database>(...)` needs the schema passed as the second
generic (`createClient<Database, 'myschema'>(...)`) to type-check
`db.schema` against anything but `public`.
`supabase.schema('myschema').from(...)` is the per-call alternative that
needs no second generic.
Related to supabase/supabase-js#969 — the existing JS example has no
type parameters so it never surfaces this, and TypeScript users
extending it with `<Database>` hit a confusing compile error with no
pointer to the fix.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **Documentation**
* Added guidance to the custom schemas guide explaining TypeScript
typing behavior when using non-public schemas.
* Clarified how to specify a schema explicitly and when schema types are
inferred automatically.
* Noted that custom schemas must be included in the generated `Database`
type.

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.
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.
