<li>Added the [PRAGMA foreign_key_check] command.
<li>Added new extended error codes for all SQLITE_CONSTRAINT errors

<li>Improved optimization of queries containing aggregate min() or max().
<li>Enhance virtual tables so that they can potentially use an index when
    the WHERE clause contains the IN operator.
<li>Allow indices to be used for sorting even if prior terms of the index
    are constrained by IN operators in the WHERE clause.
<li>Enhance the [PRAGMA table_info] command so that the "pk" column is an
    increasing integer to show the order of columns in the primary key.

  or inserted or deleted by the most recently completed INSERT, DELETE,

  C/C++ function and hence follows the same rules for counting changes.
