This PR adds support for table-valued functions for PRAGMAs (see the
[PRAGMA functions section](https://www.sqlite.org/pragma.html)).
Additionally, it introduces built-in table-valued functions. I
considered using extensions for this, but there are several reasons in
favor of a dedicated mechanism:
* It simplifies the use of internal functions, structs, etc. For
example, when implementing `json_each` and `json_tree`, direct access to
internals was necessary:
https://github.com/tursodatabase/limbo/pull/1088
* It avoids FFI overhead. [Benchmarks](https://github.com/piotrrzysko/li
mbo/blob/pragma_vtabs_bench/core/benches/pragma_benchmarks.rs) on my
hardware show that `pragma_table_info()` implemented as an extension is
2.5× slower than the built-in version.

In preparation for `CREATE VIEW`, we need to have the original sql query
that was used to create the view. I'm using the scanner's offset to
slice into the original input, trimming the newlines, and passing it to
the translate function.

Again found when fuzzing nested where clause subqueries:
Aggregate registers need to be NULLed at the start because the same
registers might be reused on another invocation of a subquery, and if
they are not NULLed, the 2nd invocation of the same subquery will have
values left over from the first invocation.

- TableReferences struct, which holds both:
- joined_tables, and
- outer_query_refs
- JoinedTable:
- this is just a rename of the previous TableReference struct
- OuterQueryReference
- this is to distinguish from JoinedTable those cases where
e.g. a subquery refers to an outer query's table, or a CTE
refers to a previous CTE.
Both JoinedTable and OuterQueryReference can be referred to by expressions,
but only JoinedTables are considered for join ordering optimization and so
forth.
This commit does not compile.
Currently we have this:
program.alloc_cursor_id(Option<String>, CursorType)`
where the String is the table's name or alias ('users' or 'u' in
the query).
This is problematic because this can happen:
`SELECT * FROM t WHERE EXISTS (SELECT * FROM t)`
There are two cursors, both with identifier 't'. This causes a bug
where the program will use the same cursor for both the main query
and the subquery, since they are keyed by 't'.
Instead introduce `CursorKey`, which is a combination of:
1. `TableInternalId`, and
2. index name (Option<String> -- in case of index cursors.
This should provide key uniqueness for cursors:
`SELECT * FROM t WHERE EXISTS (SELECT * FROM t)`
here the first 't' will have a different `TableInternalId` than the
second `t`, so there is no clash.
Currently in the main translation logic after planning and optimization,
we don't _really_ need to pass a `&mut Vec<WhereTerm>` around anymore,
except for the fact that virtual table constraint resolution is done ad-
hoc in `init_loop()`.
Even there, the only thing we mutate is `WhereTerm::consumed` which is a
boolean indicating that the term has been "used up" by the optimizer and
shouldn't be evaluated as a normal where clause condition anymore.
In the upcoming branch for WHERE clause subqueries, I want to store
immutable references to WHERE clause expressions in `Resolver`, but this
is unfortunately not possible if we still use the aforementioned mutable
references.
Hence, we can temporarily make `WhereTerm::consumed` a `Cell<bool>`
which allows us to pass an immutable reference to `init_loop()`, and the
`Cell` can be removed once the virtual table constraint resolution is
moved to an earlier part of the query processing pipeline.

Currently we have some usages of LIMIT where the actual limit counter
is initialized next to the DecrJumpZero instruction, and then
`program.mark_last_insn_constant()` is used to hoist the counter
initialization to the beginning of the program.
This is very fragile, and already FROM clause subquery handling works
around this with a hack (removed in this PR), and (upcoming) WHERE clause
subqueries would also run into problems because of this, because the LIMIT
might need to be initialized once for every iteration of the subquery.
This PR removes those usages for LIMIT, and LIMIT processing is now more
intuitive:
- limit counter is now initialized at the start of the query processing
- a function init_limit() is extracted to do this for select/update/delete
1. allow calling op_null with Insn::BeginSubrtn
- BeginSubrtn is identical to Null, but named differently so that
its use in context is clearer
2. Insn::Return: add possibility to fallthrough on non-integer values as
per sqlite spec
Closes#1588
Currently our "table id"/"table no"/"table idx" references always
use the direct index of the `TableReference` in the plan, e.g. in
`SelectPlan::table_references`. For example:
```rust
Expr::Column { table: 0, column: 3, .. }
```
refers to the 0'th table in the `table_references` list.
This is a fragile approach because it assumes the table_references
list is stable for the lifetime of the query processing. This has so
far been the case, but there exist certain query transformations,
e.g. subquery unnesting, that may fold new table references from
a subquery (which has its own table ref list) into the table reference
list of the parent.
If such a transformation is made, then potentially all of the Expr::Column
references to tables will become invalid. Consider this example:
```sql
-- Assume tables: users(id, age), orders(user_id, amount)
-- Get total amount spent per user on orders over $100
SELECT u.id, sub.total
FROM users u JOIN
(SELECT user_id, SUM(amount) as total
FROM orders o
WHERE o.amount > 100
GROUP BY o.user_id) sub
WHERE u.id = sub.user_id
-- Before subquery unnesting:
-- Main query table_references: [users, sub]
-- u.id refers to table 0, column 0
-- sub.total refers to table 1, column 1
--
-- Subquery table_references: [orders]
-- o.user_id refers to table 0, column 0
-- o.amount refers to table 0, column 1
--
-- After unnesting and folding subquery tables into main query,
-- the query might look like this:
SELECT u.id, SUM(o.amount) as total
FROM users u JOIN orders o ON u.id = o.user_id
WHERE o.amount > 100
GROUP BY u.id;
-- Main query table_references: [users, orders]
-- u.id refers to table index 0 (correct)
-- o.amount refers to table index 0 (incorrect, should be 1)
-- o.user_id refers to table index 0 (incorrect, should be 1)
```
We could ofc traverse every expression in the subquery and rewrite
the table indexes to be correct, but if we instead use stable identifiers
for each table reference, then all the column references will continue
to be correct.
Hence, this PR introduces a `TableInternalId` used in `TableReference`
as well as `Expr::Column` and `Expr::Rowid` so that this kind of query
transformations can happen with less pain.
We do a lot of
```rust
match expr {
...
}
```
just to find some specific case like `Expr::Column` deep inside an
expression tree. This PR introduces new helpers `walk_expr()` and
`walk_expr_mut()` that handle the tree-walking part, and the business
logic functions where this tree traversal is used can focus on the exact
enum variants of `Expr` that they are interested in.
