@benitav while we're making these changes, I'm thinking we could do this too:
- Change "Backend DB"/"Backend Database" to "Source DB"/"Source Database" to better align with terminology elsewhere.
- In the updated core messaging that Kobie and I worked on, we changed "In-app SQLite" to "Client-side SQLite" because that better covers embedded systems use cases too.

Since our list of supported backend databases is quite long now (with, recently, the addition of DocumentDB), simplify the "Backend DB" card in these diagrams to exclude the logos. I think it's OK because the point of these is something higher level anyway.
Other architecture diagrams already exclude these logos in the Backend DB card e.g. https://docs.powersync.com/architecture/powersync-service
