-SQLAdmin configuration for administrative interface.
-
-This module provides a web-based admin panel for managing database models.
-The admin panel is mounted at /admin and provides CRUD operations for:
-- Users: View and manage OAuth-authenticated users
-- Items: View and manage user-created items
-
-Access Control:
-- In production, protect /admin with OAuth2 proxy or network policies
-- The admin uses the same database connection as the main app
