sqlite: add serialize() and deserialize() to DatabaseSync

+Serializes the database into a binary representation, returned as a
+`Uint8Array`. This is useful for saving, cloning, or transferring an in-memory
+database. This method is a wrapper around [`sqlite3_serialize()`][].
+
+```cjs
+const { DatabaseSync } = require('node:sqlite');
+
+const db = new DatabaseSync(':memory:');
+db.exec('CREATE TABLE t(key INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, value TEXT)');
+db.exec("INSERT INTO t VALUES (1, 'hello')");
+const buffer = db.serialize();

+```

+### `database.deserialize(buffer[, options])`
+
+<!-- YAML
+added: REPLACEME

+
+* `buffer` {Uint8Array} A binary representation of a database, such as the
+  output of [`database.serialize()`][].
+* `options` {Object} Optional configuration for the deserialization.
+  * `dbName` {string} Name of the database to deserialize into.
+    **Default:** `'main'`.
+
+Loads a serialized database into this connection, replacing the current
+database. The deserialized database is writable. Existing prepared statements
+are finalized before deserialization is attempted, even if the operation
+subsequently fails. This method is a wrapper around
+[`sqlite3_deserialize()`][].

+const { DatabaseSync } = require('node:sqlite');
+
+const original = new DatabaseSync(':memory:');
+original.exec('CREATE TABLE t(key INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, value TEXT)');
+original.exec("INSERT INTO t VALUES (1, 'hello')");

+original.close();
+
+const clone = new DatabaseSync(':memory:');
