Hello,

This is a minor feature request: Add support for the RESTART IDENTITY /
CONTINUE IDENTITY options that can be passed to a TRUNCATE statement in
some databases, specifically Postgres [1] and HSQLDB [2].

The H2 roadmap already features Postgres' CASCADE option, but I think
IDENTITY handling might be easier to implement. In fact, RESTART IDENTITY
could be a short-hand for executing two consecutive SQL statements:

1. The TRUNCATE statement
2. An ALTER TABLE [table] ALTER COLUMN [column] RESTART WITH [initial value]

Cheers
Lukas
