This pull request updates the documentation in README.md to clarify how database connection strings (DSNs) should be specified and encoded for SQL Exporter. The changes improve the explanation of URL-format DSNs, provide clearer guidance on encoding special characters, and enhance instructions for handling MySQL date/time values.

Improvements to DSN documentation:

  • Clarified terminology from "Data Source Names (DSN)" to "Database URLs (URL-format DSNs)" and explained the use of URL-style DSNs for all supported databases.
  • Updated instructions to emphasize the need for URL encoding (percent-encoding) of special characters in DSNs, including a more readable example.
