Release prep for native Server 3.8.0, following #1165 (3.7.0). This time the notes land before the tag, in the same PR as the Compose default.

• docs/releases/3.8.0.md:
  • Upgrade: schema step on every backend (SQLite 11 → 12, PostgreSQL 12 → 13, MariaDB 12 → 13, MySQL 13 → 14; one new empty table dw_task_queue_pauses), with Compose steps, multi-node note, refusal codes and rollback by backup. It also covers older databases (the MySQL 3.7.0 JSON rebuild when coming from schema 12, and the 3.5.0 step) and Kubernetes.
  • Task queue activity-dispatch pause (Pause activity dispatch for a task queue, and stop treating a zero cap as unlimited #577 via Pause activity dispatch for a task queue (#577) #1177): routes, semantics, the task_queue_activity_dispatch_pause capability and OpenAPI revision 14 → 15.
  • Redrive reuses side effects and version markers (Match Core's failed-run redrive: visibility carryover, eligibility in describe, reused markers and timers #980 via Reuse side effects and version markers in redrive (#980) #1175), including service_redrive_history_not_qualified and external_side_effect_result_not_supported.
  • Fewer round trips: Drop three redundant statements per workflow task (#1171) #1173 (Native 3.7.0 runs about 8% more statements per workflow than 3.4.0 #1171), Write a workflow poll's binding and answer in one upsert (#1063) #1166 (Native: drop locked statements whose answers the transition already has #1063), and the statement cache default of 100 → 200 (Hold the native hot path in the statement cache (#1174) #1178, Native: hot-path statements exceed sqlx's statement cache, causing prepare/close churn #1174), with the MySQL max_prepared_stmt_count budget and DW_NATIVE_DB_STATEMENT_CACHE_CAPACITY.
  • Registering or deleting a search attribute can break running workflows #571 tests (Test registry changes while a workflow upserts (#571) #1168) as one line. CI-only CI: skip queue suites already passed on the exact same merge (#1130) #1176 is omitted.
• docker-compose.published.yml: default image durableworkflow/server:3.8.0.

The 3.7.0 tag commit (d041f5b) changed only the Compose default. resources/release/source-release.json and the chart move in the chart PR after the release, as #1167 did for 3.7.0.

Checked against origin/main a9bf62c: schema constants (schema.rs 12, postgres.rs 13, mysql.rs MySQL 14 / MariaDB 13), routes in http.rs, the cluster-info capability, the OpenAPI version: "15", WORKER_PROTOCOL_VERSION 1.20 and control plane "2", the redrive refusal codes, and statement_cache.rs (default 200, max 4095, 4 pool connections).

For General: the Kubernetes paragraph links to UPGRADING.md without an anchor because the Chart 1.6.0 / Server 3.8.0 section doesn't exist yet. Add the anchor when the chart PR lands. Unlike 3.7.0, the notes have no image index digest, because they are written before publication.

After merge: tag 3.8.0 → native-release.yml (with scans) → corpus and Compose qualifiers from the tag → native_alias_manifest.py → alias promotion → native-github-release.yml, per docs/native-release-promotion.md. Then chart 1.6.0 repeats the upgrade text.
