[Bug]: SQLite ":memory:" config fails because colon is stripped but Bun connector expects it

Version

v3

Reproduction

I'll provide the repository if needed.

1. Configure Nuxt Content with sqlite and filename: ":memory:".
2. Run in a read-only environment (or Docker container).
3. Observe SQLITE_CANTOPEN error because it tries to write to disk instead of using memory.

Description

I am deploying Nuxt Content v3 on Kubernetes using the Bun runtime. I am trying to use an in-memory SQLite database to avoid file system permission issues in the container.
However, setting filename: ":memory:" triggers a logic error where the configuration parser strips the colon, but the connector checks strictly for ":memory:". This causes the application to fall through to the file-system creation logic, attempting to write a file named .data/memory.bun.sqlite, which it's unable to do due to permissions.

function refineDatabaseConfig(config) {
...
  if (config.type === "sqlite") {
    const _config = { ...config };
    if (config.filename === ":memory:") {
      return { name: "memory" }; // <--- Returns "memory" without colon
    }
    if ("filename" in config) {
      const filename = isAbsolute(config?.filename || "") || config?.filename === ":memory:" ? config?.filename : new URL(config.filename, globalThis._importMeta_.url).pathname;
      _config.path = process.platform === "win32" && filename.startsWith("/") ? filename.slice(1) : filename;
    }
    return _config;
  }
