table SQL DDL

   @danny0405 Maybe the merging happened too quickly for this PR. It is still 
not 100% aligned with FLIP-37. We should make sure to do that before the 
release. In particular:
   
   - no colon between ROW field name and type
   - alternative syntax `ROW(fieldName fieldType)` to be SQL compliant
   - support for comments in rows like `ROW<fieldName fieldType 'comment'>`
   - no tests for parameterized VARCHARs like `VARCHAR(100)`
   - alternative syntax for `VARCHAR(INT_MAX)` as `STRING`
   - alternative syntax for `VARBINARY(INT_MAX)` as `BYTES`
   - REAL is not supported
   
   Furthermore it would be great if the parser would already support all data 
types defined in FLIP-37 otherwise we need to check for compatibility in every 
corner of the stack again.
   
   Missing are (among others): CHAR, BINARY, user-defined type identifiers, 
MULTISET
   Please ensure consistency here.
