Add GEOMETRY_COLUMNS view

Project: Teiid
Issue Type: Feature Request
Reporter: Tom Arnold
Assignee: Steven Hawkins
Labels: spatial
Fix For: 8.10
Another OGC Simple Features implementation detail. Basically this is like a specialized
version of SYS.COLUMNS, and would be used to support GIS software (like GeoServer).
http://www.carocoops.org/resources/doc/postgis/x321.html
{code}
CREATE TABLE GEOMETRY_COLUMNS (
F_TABLE_CATALOG VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL,
F_TABLE_SCHEMA VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL,
F_TABLE_NAME VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL,
F_GEOMETRY_COLUMN VARCHAR(256) NOT NULL,
COORD_DIMENSION INTEGER NOT NULL,
SRID INTEGER NOT NULL,
TYPE VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL
)
{code}
I think we could implement this by storing SRID & friends as column properties, and
then creating a view on SYS.COLUMNS & SYS.PROPERTIES.
