+***
+** This routine registers a authorizer callback with the SQLite library.
+** The authorizer callback is invoked as SQL statements are being compiled
+** by [sqlite3_prepare()] or its variants [sqlite3_prepare_v2()],
+** [sqlite3_prepare16()] and [sqlite3_prepare16_v2()]. At various
+** points during the compilation process, as logic is being created
+** to perform various actions, the authorizer callback is invoked to
+** see if those actions are allowed. The authorizer callback should
+** return SQLITE_OK to allow the action, [SQLITE_IGNORE] to disallow the
+** specific action but allow the SQL statement to continue to be
+** compiled, or [SQLITE_DENY] to cause the entire SQL statement to be
+** rejected with an error.
+**
+** Depending on the action, the [SQLITE_IGNORE] and [SQLITE_DENY] return
+** codes might mean something different or they might mean the same
+** thing. If the action is, for example, to perform a delete opertion,
+** then [SQLITE_IGNORE] and [SQLITE_DENY] both cause the statement compilation
+** to fail with an error. But if the action is to read a specific column
+** from a specific table, then [SQLITE_DENY] will cause the entire
+** statement to fail but [SQLITE_IGNORE] will cause a NULL value to be
+** read instead of the actual column value.
+**
+** The first parameter to the authorizer callback is a copy of
+** the third parameter to the sqlite3_set_authorizer() interface.
+** The second parameter to the callback is an integer
+** [SQLITE_COPY | action code] that specifies the particular action
+** to be authorized. The available action codes are
+** [SQLITE_COPY | documented separately]. The third through sixth
+** parameters to the callback are strings that contain additional
+** details about the action to be authorized.
+**
+** An authorizer is used when preparing SQL statements from an untrusted
+** source, to ensure that the SQL statements do not try to access data
+** that they are not allowed to see, or that they do not try to
+** execute malicious statements that damage the database. For
+** example, an application may allow a user to enter arbitrary
+** SQL queries for evaluation by a database. But the application does
+** not want the user to be able to make arbitrary changes to the
+** database. An authorizer could then be put in place while the
+** user-entered SQL is being prepared that disallows everything
+** except SELECT statements.
+**
+** Only a single authorizer can be in place on a database connection
+** at a time. Each call to sqlite3_set_authorizer overrides the
+** previous call. A NULL authorizer means that no authorization
+** callback is invoked. The default authorizer is NULL.

+** argument is the index of the parameter to be set. The first parameter has

+** occurrences have the same index as the first occurrence. The index for
+** named parameters can be looked up using the

+** parametes is the value of NNN.
+** The NNN value must be between 1 and the compile-time
+** parameter SQLITE_MAX_VARIABLE_NUMBER (default value: 999).
+** See limits.html for additional information.
+**
+** The third argument is the value to bind to the parameter.

+** In those

+** of bytes does not include the zero-terminator at the end of strings.
+** If the fourth parameter is negative, the length of the string is
+** number of bytes up to the first zero terminator.
**
** The fifth argument to sqlite3_bind_blob(), sqlite3_bind_text(), and

-** The fourth parameter is one of SQLITE_UTF* values defined below,
-** indicating the encoding that the function is most likely to handle

-** interface. However, if two versions of the same function are registered
-** with different encoding values, SQLite invokes the version likely to
-** minimize conversions between text encodings.
+** The fourth parameter, eTextRep, specifies what
+** [SQLITE_UTF8 | text encoding] this SQL function prefers for
+** its parameters. Any SQL function implementation should be able to work
+** work with UTF-8, UTF-16le, or UTF-16be. But some implementations may be
