count and head requests are supported, so drop that bullet and list the support under features instead. Clarify that nullsFirst is ignored rather than merely unhonored, since ordering by a nullable column throws. Restore the serial comma dropped in #23.

What is the current behavior?
Following up on #23, the rest of the limitations list had not been audited against the code. I verified every bullet empirically by driving the mock client through a
SupabaseClient, and found one stale entry plus two wording issues.count and head requests are not supported.is stale._handleHeadand thecount=Preferheader handling make both work, and there is already acounttest group covering it. AHEAD-only.count(CountOption.exact)returns the right number.Respect nullsFirst on ordering is not supported.is accurate but undersells it. The order parameter arrives ascolumn.asc.nullslast, and the mock only reads the first two segments, sonullsFirstis ignored. Worse, ordering by a column containingnullthrowstype 'Null' is not a subtype of type 'num' of 'other'rather than sorting.What is the new behavior?
nullsFirstbullet to say it is ignored and that a nullable column throws.I re-verified that the remaining bullets are all still true, so they are untouched:
!innerjoin!innerbranch is an empty no-op, so the row is returned with the referenced table set tonullinstead of being excludedselect('headline:title')returns[{}]select('score.sum()')returns[{}, {}]Docs only, no code change.
dart analyzeis clean and all 90 tests pass.
