Fix issue #702: Handle CSV with only header row in --detect-types (#707)

When inserting a CSV file that contains only a header row (no data rows),
the --detect-types option would crash with an AssertionError because it
tried to transform a table that didn't exist.

This fix adds a check to ensure the table exists before attempting to
apply type transformations. The fix is applied in two places:
1. insert_upsert_implementation() for the insert command
2. memory() command for CSV/TSV files

Added test case: test_insert_csv_headers_only
