…ts is omitted Makes `targets` optional for both `database_observability.mysql` and `database_observability.postgres`. When no targets are provided, the embedded exporter is started automatically using default args. An explicit `prometheus_exporter` block can still be used to customise the embedded exporter. Providing both `prometheus_exporter` and `targets` remains a validation error. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
