+-- BullMQ PostgreSQL backend — deduplication stale-key recovery.
+--
+-- Replaces `deduplicate_job` (created in 0002_functions.sql) to fix two ways a
+-- deduplication key could outlive the job it points at:
+--
+--   1. Stale key: a key with no expiry is meant to disappear when its winner
+--      finishes, but `clean`, `drain`, `obliterate` (and outages) delete the
+--      job row without clearing the `dedup` row. Every later add then matched
+--      that dead winner and was silently dropped, forever. Mirrors the Redis
+--      `recoverStaleDeduplicationKey` include.
+--   2. Orphaned proto-next: replacing a *delayed* winner left behind any
+--      `dedup_next` payload stashed while that winner was previously active,
+--      so it got resurrected when the replacement finished.
+--
+-- Only the function body changes — no schema/DDL change — so the signature is
+-- identical and older clients keep working against the updated schema.
