docs.rs adopted SQLx because "a common source of outages is an incorrect query with no tests"

Source repo Strength moderate
The rust-lang/docs.rs project adopted SQLx specifically because "a common source of outages is an incorrect query with no tests" and SQLx "can check all queries at build time without having to write a test for that specific query." Real production rationale from a critical Rust infrastructure project.
