Maksym Ionutsa fe0afd66b8 docs(cron): document how to clean up cron.job_run_details (#50211)
cron.job_run_details grows unbounded and is never pruned automatically,
even after a job is unscheduled. Add an example that schedules a daily
cleanup job, and link it from the existing disk-usage caution.

## I have read the
[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)

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.
