v1.2.3

Release v1.2.3

Features:

• Added close method to the Reign to explicitly close the IndexedDB connection.

  // Usage example
  const db = new Reign({ databaseName: 'MyDatabase', storeNames: ['Users', 'Products'], version: 1 });
  await db.init();
  
  // Perform database operations...
  
  // Close the database connection on application shutdown
  db.close();

Benefits:

• Ensures proper resource management by allowing the database connection to be explicitly closed when no longer needed.
• Helps prevent potential memory leaks and resource contention, especially during application shutdown.
