One suggestion but it's a tiny one; happy for you to merge as-is if you prefer.

Minor: I would skip creating the table; SQLite allows you to run SQL functions without applying them to a table (SELECT LOWER('Hi') is a complete query).
This allows built-in functions to be disabled. Updates tailscale/corp#31396 Signed-off-by: Percy Wegmann <percy@tailscale.com>

It is probably also worth noting that we "disable" it by replacing that function name with a stub that does nothing, rather than making it report an error. That might be relevant to someone debugging.

As written, this will also let you "create" new previously non-existing no-op functions. That's harmless, but someone who misspells the function name they wanted to disable could easily be confused as there's no error to say "that doesn't exist".
Is it practical to look up the requested function first, and use that to report an error if someone tries to "disable" a function that isn't there? (E.g., we could query select name, narg from pragma_function_list where name = 'fname'). That would also have the incidental benefit that we wouldn't need to know the argument count a priori.
Not positive it's worth it, but this should be uncommon enough that it might be worth the extra step.
This allows built-in functions to be disabled.
