Bug: SQL Exclusion Flaws: DELETE Missing, Whitespace Ignored
The sql_keywords tuple, intended to exclude common SQL queries from query injection detection, is missing "DELETE", a fundamental DML operation. This omission means "DELETE" queries are not excluded, leading to inconsistent behavior. Additionally, the keyword check does not account for leading whitespace in the span description, allowing queries like " SELECT * FROM users" to bypass the exclusion filter and still be processed by the detector, defeating its purpose of preventing false positives for common SQL operations.

fixes an edge case where some oddly formed SQL requests were getting picked up by the query injection detector (not the sql injection one)
