Authorisation denied by user

SQLITE_AUTH_USER (279) is a sub-code of SQLITE_AUTH returned specifically when the authoriser callback denies access due to a user-level permission check (as opposed to a schema-level check).

1. 1Authoriser callback registered via sqlite3_set_authorizer() returned SQLITE_DENY for a user-specific operation.
2. 2Multi-user SQLite extension (e.g., user_version-based auth) denied the operation.

Any SQL operation when a custom authoriser callback denies it with user context.

# In C, register an authoriser:
# sqlite3_set_authorizer(db, myAuth, NULL);
# If myAuth() returns SQLITE_DENY with user context → SQLITE_AUTH_USER
