sqlx 0.8's default feature set pulls in `any`, `macros`, `migrate`, and
`json`. Grepping the workspace confirms none of these are used — the
code calls sqlx::query() / query_scalar() at runtime, implements its own
migration sequencing in crates/storage/src/migrations.rs, is sqlite-only
(no `any` needed), and never derives FromRow / applies sqlx proc-macros.
Dropping them keeps only what's needed: runtime-tokio + sqlite.
Why it matters disproportionately on Windows: the `macros` feature pulls
sqlx-macros → sqlx-macros-core → proc-macro2 / syn / quote / async-trait
/ url / heck / dotenvy / sha2 / filetime. Each proc-macro crate on
Windows MSVC compiles to a .dll with a full linker invocation (slower
ABI than Linux/macOS proc-macro .so). Net: tens of seconds shaved off
every cold-cache CI run, compounding with the cache-path fix in the next
commit.
kon-mcp was already lean (default-features = false); matching that shape
across the workspace now.
