Incorrect line number in the error message when parser throws syntax error in 
some specific examples
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: DERBY-693
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-693
     Project: Derby
        Type: Bug
  Components: SQL  
    Versions: 10.2.0.0    
    Reporter: Mamta A. Satoor


After connecting to a database through ij, parser returns correct line number 
for the sql "select" the first time around but it returns incorrect line number 
when the same sql is rexecuted, as shown below
$ java org.apache.derby.tools.ij
ij version 10.2
ij> connect 'jdbc:derby:c:/dellater/db1';
ij> select
;
ERROR 42X01: Syntax error: Encountered "<EOF>" at line 1, column 8.
ij> select
;
ERROR 42X01: Syntax error: Encountered "<EOF>" at line 2, column 8.
ij>

This is caused by UCode_CharStream's UpdateLineColumn method. When the sql 
"select" is executed the first time, the parser comes to UpdateLineColumn 
method for trailing \r and then for trailing \n for the first line "select". 
The trailing \n causes the prevCharIsLF to be set to true. Since this sql is 
incorrect by itself, parser will throw a syntax error. After the exception and 
before the processing of next sql "select", this prevCharIsLF flag does not get 
set to false(this is the problem). When the first character "s" is read, 
UpdateLineColumn checks if prevCharIsLF set to true and if yes, it 
increments(incorrectly) the line number to 2 and that is why the second time 
around, execution of "select" gives syntax error at line 2 rather than line 1.

This also causes problem with the optimizer hints when they are used in 
incorrect context as shown below. 
$ java org.apache.derby.tools.ij
ij version 10.2
ij> connect 'jdbc:derby:c:/dellater/db1';
ij> -- derby-properties
select * from t1;
ERROR 42X01: Syntax error: Encountered "derby-properties" at line 1, column 4.
ij> -- derby-properties
select * from t1;
ERROR 42X01: Syntax error: Encountered "derby-properties" at line 2, column 4.
