/**
 * OpenStation — DevTools / debug bus.
 *
 * Provides a generic per-session pub/sub channel that plugins use to
 * stream debug data (SQL queries, HTTP timings, hook traces, custom
 * events) from a server-side capture into a client-side inspector
 * window.
 *
 * Architecture:
 *
 *   1. Inspector plugin allocates a session id with
 *      `wp.os.devtools.debug.startSession()` and decides which
 *      channels it cares about (`'query'`, `'log'`, …).
 *   2. Inspector contributes `X-WP-Debug-Session: <id>` to the
 *      target window via
 *      `wp.os.devtools.addRequestHeader( windowId, 'X-WP-Debug-Session', sessionId )`.
 *   3. The target window's iframe attaches that header to every
 *      fetch / XHR / sendBeacon (the chromeless inline bridge merges
 *      contributed headers into outgoing requests).
 *   4. Server-side capture hooks read the header via
 *      {@see openstation_debug_session_for_request()}, run their
 *      capture (SAVEQUERIES, output buffering, etc.), and publish via
 *      {@see openstation_debug_publish()}.
 *   5. Inspector subscribes via
 *      `wp.os.devtools.debug.subscribe( sessionId, channel, cb )`.
 *      The shell polls `GET /desktop-mode/v1/debug` every second and
 *      replays new events to subscribers.
 *
 * Storage: a per-session ring buffer in a transient. Bounded by
 * {@see OPENSTATION_DEBUG_RING_SIZE} so a misconfigured capture
 * loop can't fill the database. TTL is 1 hour — long enough for an
 * inspector session to span a few page loads, short enough that
 * abandoned sessions don't squat indefinitely.
 *
 * Capability gate: every public surface requires the caller to be
 * logged-in AND hold `manage_options`. Debug data leaks request /
 * response details (query parameters, internal IDs) — locking it to
 * site admins matches the cost of getting that wrong.
 *
 * @package OpenStation
