+-- Flyway Migration: V2.1.1
+-- Purpose: Fully eliminate unintended uniqueness on GAME.COVER_IMAGE_ID / HEADER_IMAGE_ID
+--          by dropping and recreating foreign keys and removing lingering unique indexes
+-- Context:
+--   * Original schema created UNIQUE constraints (UK52... cover, UK30... header).
+--   * V2.1.0.1 dropped those constraints but H2 left behind unique indexes (UK52..._INDEX_n etc.).
+-- Strategy:
+--   1. Drop the foreign keys (idempotent).
+--   2. Drop any remaining unique constraints (defensive repeat) and their indexes.
+--   3. Recreate NON-UNIQUE supporting indexes explicitly (optional but good for lookups).
+--   4. Recreate the foreign keys cleanly without reintroducing uniqueness.
+--   5. All steps are idempotent / tolerant so reruns don't fail.
