This is a collection of fixes for materialized views ahead of adding
support for JOINs.
It is mostly issues with how we assume there is a single table, with a
single delta, but we have to send more than one.
Those are things that are just objectively wrong, so I am sending it
separately to make the JOIN PR smaller.

Closes#3009
Eliminates get_dependent_materialized_views() overhead when there are no
views. Note that we need to optimize the case when there are views as
well because this ends up being pretty hot in write-intensive workloads.
indexes with the naming scheme "sqlite_autoindex_<tblname>_<number>"
are automatically created when a table is created with UNIQUE or
PRIMARY KEY definitions.
these indexes must map to the table definition SQL in definition order,
i.e. sqlite_autoindex_foo_1 must be the first instance of UNIQUE or
PRIMARY KEY and so on.
this commit fixes our autoindex creation / parsing so that this invariant
is upheld.
On the syscall IO backend, on TPC-H query 12, the _dominating_ part
of the stack trace is trying to construct affinities from a character,
failing, allocating an error&string, and then immediately falling back to
Blob affinity and dropping the error&string.
Since I'm on vacation I won't spend cycles on figuring out why we are passing
an incorrect affinity in `flags.get_affinity()` and instead make this lazy PR
just to improve performance and stop doing silly things :]
This fairly long commit implements persistence for materialized view.
It is hard to split because of all the interdependencies between components,
so it is a one big thing. This commit message will at least try to go into
details about the basic architecture.
Materialized Views as tables
============================
Materialized views are now a normal table - whereas before they were a virtual
table. By making a materialized view a table, we can reuse all the
infrastructure for dealing with tables (cursors, etc).
One of the advantages of doing this is that we can create indexes on view
columns. Later, we should also be able to write those views to separate files
with ATTACH write.
Materialized Views as Zsets
===========================
The contents of the table are a ZSet: rowid, values, weight. Readers will
notice that because of this, the usage of the ZSet data structure dwindles
throughout the codebase. The main difference between our materialized ZSet and
the standard DBSP ZSet, is that obviously ours is backed by a BTree, not a Hash
(since SQLite tables are BTrees)
Aggregator State
================
In DBSP, the aggregator nodes also have state. To store that state, there is a
second table. The table holds all aggregators in the view, and there is one
table per view. That is __turso_internal_dbsp_state_{view_name}. The format of
that table is similar to a ZSet: rowid, serialized_values, weight. We serialize
the values because there will be many aggregators in the table. We can't rely
on a particular format for the values.
The Materialized View Cursor
============================
Reading from a Materialized View essentially means reading from the persisted
ZSet, and enhancing that with data that exists within the transaction.
Transaction data is ephemeral, so we do not materialize this anywhere: we have
a carefully crafted implementation of seek that takes care of merging weights
and stitching the two sets together.
SQLite does not allow us to modify system tables, but we do. Let's fix
it.

We were not generating table_info for views. This PR fixes it. We were
so far storing columns as strings with just their names - since this is
all we needed - but we will move now to store Columns. We need to
convert the names to Column anyway for table_info to work.
A lot of the structures we have - like the ones under Schema, are
specific for materialized views. In preparation to adding normal views,
rename them, so things are less confusing.
This is just the bare minimum that I needed to convince myself that this
approach will work. The only views that we support are slices of the
main table: no aggregations, no joins, no projections.
drop view is implemented.
view population is implemented.
deletes, inserts and updates are implemented.
much like indexes before, a flag must be passed to enable views.
The parser unfortunately outputs Stmt, which has some enum variants that
we never actually encounter in some parts of the core. Switch to
unreachable instead of todo.
Closes: #1947
This PR replaces the `Name(pub String)` struct with a `Name` enum that
explicitly models how the name appeared in the source either as an
unquoted identifier (`Ident`) or a quoted string (`Quoted`).
In the process, the separate `Id` wrapper type has been coalesced into
the `Name` enum, simplifying the AST and reducing duplication in
identifier handling logic.
While this increases the size of some AST nodes (notably
`yyStackEntry`).

it improves correctness and makes source structure more explicit for
later phases.
`BTreeTable::to_sql` makes us incompatible with SQLite by losing e.g. the original whitespace provided during the CREATE TABLE command.
For now let's fix our tests by regex-replacing every CREATE TABLE in
the entire repo to have exactly 1 space after the table name in the
CREATE TABLE statement.

### This PR
With this change, the following two queries are considered equivalent:
```sql
SELECT value FROM generate_series(5, 50);
SELECT value FROM generate_series WHERE start = 5 AND stop = 50;
```
Arguments passed in parentheses to the virtual table name are now
matched to hidden columns.
Additionally, I fixed two bugs related to virtual tables.
### TODO (I'll handle this in a separate PR)
Column references are still not supported as table-valued function
arguments. The only difference is that previously, a query like:
```sql
SELECT one.value, series.value
FROM (SELECT 1 AS value) one, generate_series(one.value, 3) series;
```
would cause a panic. Now, it returns a proper error message instead.
Adding support for column references is more nuanced for two main
reasons:
* We need to ensure that in joins where a TVF depends on other tables,
those other tables are processed first. For example, in:
```sql
SELECT one.value, series.value
FROM generate_series(one.value, 3) series, (SELECT 1 AS value) one;
```
the one table must be processed by the top-level loop, and series must
be nested.
* For outer joins involving TVFs, the arguments must be treated as `ON`
predicates, not `WHERE` predicates.
