Andrew, I looked through the code and Derby documentation and don't see
Derby using the attribute collate anywhere.

I checked the SQL specification and the purpose of collate clause in SQL is
to customize  the collation used for a character data type or group by
clause etc.

So, for now, this attribute can be removed so it doesn't cause confusion. I
can remove this attribute during my work on DERBY-1478.

My mistake. There's currently a 'collate' attribute in Attribute.java,
though. Do you know what that attribute is used for?
