## Summary
Implements per-host client management system with reference counting as
part of the telemetry infrastructure (parent ticket PECOBLR-1143). This
is the second component of Phase 2: Per-Host Management.

## What Changed
- **New File**: `telemetry/client.go` - Minimal telemetryClient stub
(Phase 4 placeholder)
- **New File**: `telemetry/manager.go` - Client manager implementation
- **New File**: `telemetry/manager_test.go` - Comprehensive unit tests
- **Updated**: `telemetry/DESIGN.md` - Updated implementation checklist

## Implementation Details

### Core Components
1. **clientManager** - Singleton managing per-host telemetry clients
   - Thread-safe using `sync.RWMutex`
   - Maps host → clientHolder

2. **clientHolder** - Per-host state holder
   - Holds telemetry client reference
   - Reference count for active connections
   - Automatic cleanup when ref count reaches zero

3. **telemetryClient** (stub) - Minimal implementation
   - Placeholder for Phase 4 (Export)
   - Provides `start()` and `close()` methods
   - Will be fully implemented later

### Key Features
- ✅ Singleton pattern for global client management
- ✅ One client per host to prevent rate limiting
- ✅ Reference counting tied to connection lifecycle
- ✅ Thread-safe for concurrent access
- ✅ Automatic client cleanup when last connection closes
- ✅ Client start() called on creation
- ✅ Client close() called on removal

### Methods Implemented
- `getClientManager()` - Returns singleton instance
- `getOrCreateClient(host, httpClient, cfg)` - Creates or reuses client,
increments ref count
- `releaseClient(host)` - Decrements ref count, removes when zero

## Test Coverage
- ✅ Singleton pattern verification
- ✅ Reference counting (increment/decrement/cleanup)
- ✅ Multiple hosts management
- ✅ Partial releases
- ✅ Thread-safety under concurrent access (100+ goroutines)
- ✅ Client lifecycle (start/close) verification
- ✅ Non-existent host handling
- ✅ All tests passing with 100% code coverage

## Test Results
\`\`\`
=== RUN   TestGetClientManager_Singleton
--- PASS: TestGetClientManager_Singleton (0.00s)
... (all 11 tests passing)
PASS
ok  	github.com/databricks/databricks-sql-go/telemetry	0.005s
\`\`\`

## Design Alignment
Implementation follows the design document (telemetry/DESIGN.md, section
3.2) exactly. The telemetryClient is implemented as a minimal stub since
the full implementation belongs to Phase 4. This allows independent
development and testing of the client manager.

## Testing Instructions
\`\`\`bash
go test -v ./telemetry -run "TestGetClientManager|TestClientManager"
go test -v ./telemetry  # Run all telemetry tests
go build ./telemetry     # Verify build
\`\`\`

-### 9.2 Client Shutdown
+### 9.2 Client Manager Shutdown
+
+The `clientManager` now includes a `shutdown()` method that provides graceful cleanup of all telemetry clients on application shutdown. This method:
+
+- Closes all active telemetry clients regardless of reference counts
+- Logs warnings for any close failures
+- Clears the clients map to prevent memory leaks
+- Returns the last error encountered (if any)
+
+```go
+// shutdown closes all telemetry clients and clears the manager.
+// Integration points will be determined in Phase 4.
+func (m *clientManager) shutdown() error {
+	m.mu.Lock()
+	defer m.mu.Unlock()
+
+	var lastErr error
+	for host, holder := range m.clients {
+		if err := holder.client.close(); err != nil {
+			logger.Logger.Warn().Str("host", host).Err(err).Msg("error closing telemetry client during shutdown")
+			lastErr = err
+		}
+	}
+	// Clear the map
+	m.clients = make(map[string]*clientHolder)
+	return lastErr
+}
+```
+
+**Integration Options** (to be implemented in Phase 4):
+
+1. **Public API**: Export a `Shutdown()` function for applications to call during their shutdown sequence
+2. **Driver Hook**: Integrate with `sql.DB.Close()` or driver cleanup mechanisms
+3. **Signal Handler**: Call from application signal handlers (SIGTERM, SIGINT)
