samroseandDanny White 4afbe9c2b2 feat: lint integration for pg_graphql introspection + SECURITY DEFINER functions (#45260)
## I have read the
[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
file.

YES

## What kind of change does this PR introduce?

Feature — wires up three new advisor lints landed in splinter, and
updates the self-hosted SQL bundle for the existing
`pg_graphql_anon_table_exposed` lint to track splinter's correctness
fixes. Companion to `supabase/splinter` #160 (already merged) and #162
(test fix in flight).

## What is the current behavior?

Splinter's `main` now exposes four lints in the pg_graphql / SECURITY
DEFINER family:

- `pg_graphql_anon_table_exposed` (0026, existing) — wired into Studio
in #45253; SQL in `packages/pg-meta` is the original version that uses
`has_table_privilege` and the relkind set `('r','p','v','m')`.
- `pg_graphql_authenticated_table_exposed` (0027, new) — paired check
against the `authenticated` role. Studio renders any new finding without
a `lintInfoMap` entry as a row with no icon, no title mapping, and no
"Fix" CTA. Self-hosted users do not see the lint at all because
`packages/pg-meta` does not include it.
- `anon_security_definer_function_executable` (0028, new) — `SECURITY
DEFINER` function executable by `anon`. Same Studio + self-hosted gaps
as 0027.
- `authenticated_security_definer_function_executable` (0029, new) —
same against `authenticated`.

Splinter has also updated 0026 itself (PR #160) in two ways that need to
flow into the self-hosted SQL bundle:
1. **`relkind` filter:** `('r','p','v','m')` → `('r','v','m','f')`.
Drops partitioned table roots (pg_graphql does not expose them; their
leaf partitions are still covered as `'r'`) and adds foreign tables,
which pg_graphql does expose.
2. **Privilege predicate:** `has_table_privilege(role, oid, 'SELECT')` →
`EXISTS` over `pg_attribute` calling `has_column_privilege`. Catches
column-level grants such as `GRANT SELECT (col) ON t TO anon`, which
pg_graphql's introspection exposes but `has_table_privilege` missed.

Cloud projects auto-fetch `splinter.sql` via the platform mgmt-api's
`getLintSql` (1-hour cache TTL), so they pick up #160's lint and SQL
changes independently of this PR. This PR is about the Studio display
mapping and the self-hosted SQL bundle.

## What is the new behavior?

Two minimal additions, mirroring the integration shape of #45253.

### `apps/studio/components/interfaces/Linter/Linter.utils.tsx`

Three new entries appended to `lintInfoMap`:

- `pg_graphql_authenticated_table_exposed` — `Eye` icon (paired with the
existing `pg_graphql_anon_table_exposed` entry); link points to the
Table Editor scoped to `metadata.schema` + `metadata.name`; `linkText:
'View object'`; `category: 'security'`.
- `anon_security_definer_function_executable` — `Unlock` icon (signals
"this thing is callable when it shouldn't be"); link points to the
Database Functions browser scoped to `metadata.schema` +
`metadata.name`; `linkText: 'View function'`; `category: 'security'`.
- `authenticated_security_definer_function_executable` — same as 0028
against `authenticated`.

Each entry's `docsLink` points at the splinter-hosted lint doc.

### `packages/pg-meta/src/sql/studio/advisor/lints.ts`

The existing `pg_graphql_anon_table_exposed` SQL block is updated in
place to match the new splinter version: new `relkind` set, `case`
statement for `'f'`, and the `EXISTS` over `pg_attribute` privilege
check. Three new `union all` blocks are appended for 0027/0028/0029. The
function lints (0028/0029) include the `pgrst.db_schemas` filter
(mirroring lint `0023_sensitive_columns_exposed`) so findings are scoped
to schemas PostgREST actually exposes; the self-hosted query wrapper
already sets the GUC when `exposedSchemas` is passed
(`enrichLintsQuery`).

## Coverage of the four exposure paths

| Role | Tables/views/MVs/foreign tables | SECURITY DEFINER functions |
|------|---------|----------|
| `anon` | 0026 (existing, updated) | 0028 (new) |
| `authenticated` | 0027 (new) | 0029 (new) |

The 0026/0027 pair covers `pg_graphql` introspection visibility; the
0028/0029 pair covers RLS bypass via privileged function execution
through `/rest/v1/rpc` (and `/graphql/v1` for compatible return types).
Each lint's doc cross-references its sibling so an operator hitting one
is steered toward the others.

## Verification

- `cd packages/pg-meta && npx tsc --noEmit` — clean.
- `cd apps/studio && npx tsc --noEmit` — clean for the changed file.
(Other unrelated TS errors exist in the working tree but are
pre-existing and not introduced by this PR.)
- `cd apps/studio && npx eslint
components/interfaces/Linter/Linter.utils.tsx` — clean.

## Files

- `apps/studio/components/interfaces/Linter/Linter.utils.tsx` — adds
three `lintInfoMap` entries (0027, 0028, 0029).
- `packages/pg-meta/src/sql/studio/advisor/lints.ts` — updates the 0026
SQL block to match splinter's correctness fixes, appends 0027/0028/0029
SQL blocks.
