Preserve existing SQLite journal modes on startup (#54389)

## Why

Opening an initialized database in `DELETE` journal mode previously attempted to convert it to `WAL`, which could fail while another connection held a write lock.

## What changed

- Initialize `WAL` and incremental auto-vacuum only for databases without a schema, including files left by interrupted initialization.
- Preserve journal and vacuum modes for initialized databases, use `synchronous = EXTRA` for `DELETE` connections, and retain `NORMAL` for `WAL`.
- Close failed initialization pools before retrying and restrict background page reclamation to `WAL` databases.

## Testing

Extend SQLite tests to cover interrupted initialization, opening `DELETE` databases under a write lock across all pool connections, persistence after reopening, and lock release after failed initialization.
