there's no built-in construct for CREATE DOMAIN but we do support
reflection of custom domains, to do CREATE DOMAIN you can just use a
DDL() construct:
https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/latest/core/ddl.html?highlight=ddl,
the DOMAIN you have there looks like of like an ENUM though, we have
built in support for that would that be better?
