The tables and views commands now take one or more optional table (or view)
names as positional arguments after the database path, restricting the output
to just those tables. This is handy with --counts against a database that has
a large table you would rather skip.
Names are listed in the order they are passed. If any named table or view does
not exist the command raises an error and exits with a non-zero status, so the
exit code can be used to confirm a set of expected tables is present.
Closes#478
* Emit LIMIT -1 when offset is used without limit, closes#816
SQLite requires a LIMIT clause to appear before OFFSET, so passing offset
without limit generated invalid SQL such as:
select * from "t" offset 2
which raised OperationalError: near "2": syntax error.
A negative limit means "no upper bound" in SQLite, so "limit -1 offset N"
returns all rows from position N onwards.
Fixed in three places that build LIMIT/OFFSET SQL:
- Queryable.rows_where() - also covers pks_and_rows_where()
- Table.search_sql() - also covers search()
- the "sqlite-utils rows" CLI command
* Remove duplicate comments

sqlite-utils insert db t - --pk badcol and sqlite-utils extract db t
nosuchcol dumped raw InvalidColumns tracebacks - the insert error
handling caught NoTable and OperationalError but not the InvalidColumns
introduced for #732, and the extract command had no handling at all
(including for NoTable when pointed at a view). Both now exit with
click-style Error: messages.

Queries returning duplicate column names - e.g. joins between tables
sharing column names - silently lost values because rows were built
with dict(zip(keys, row)), where the last duplicate wins.
Later occurrences are now renamed with a numeric suffix: id, id
becomes id, id_2 - skipping any suffix that would collide with a
real column in the same query.
The new utils.dedupe_keys() helper transforms the key list once per
query, so the per-row dict construction is unchanged and there is no
measurable performance impact.
Applied in Database.query() (including the PRAGMA and RETURNING
paths), Table.rows_where(), Table.search() and the CLI's JSON output.
CSV, TSV and table output keep the original duplicate headers.
Closes#624
Type detection has been the default for CSV/TSV data since 4.0a1,
making this flag a no-op kept only for backwards compatibility.
4.0 is the release where it can be removed - the flag now errors,
prompting scripts to drop it. --no-detect-types is unchanged. The
dead detect_types parameter has been removed from
insert_upsert_implementation.

drop-table on a view name silently dropped the view, and drop-view
on a table name silently dropped the table, because both used
db[name].drop() which dispatches on the actual object type. They
now use db.table() / db.view() and exit with an explanatory error
pointing at the correct command. --ignore still exits cleanly but
no longer drops anything.

The `--detect-types` option is now automatically turned on for all commands that deal with CSV or CSV.
A new `--no-detect-types` option can be used to have all columns treated as text.
Closes#679
Closes#659
The --functions option now accepts:
- File paths ending in .py (e.g., --functions my_funcs.py)
- Multiple invocations (e.g., --functions foo.py --functions 'def bar(): ...')
- Inline Python code (existing behavior)
Implementation follows the same pattern as llm's --functions flag
(simonw/llm@a880c123).
Changes:
- Added multiple=True to --functions Click option in query, bulk, and memory commands
- Modified _register_functions() to detect and read .py files
- Updated _maybe_register_functions() to iterate over multiple function sources
- Removed unused bytes/bytearray handling
- Added comprehensive tests for file paths and multiple invocations
- Updated documentation with examples

This should solve all sorts of problems seen by users of platforms that throw errors on writable_schema.
Also added `add_foreign_keys=` and `foreign_keys=` parameters to `table.transform()`.

- Uses `sqlean` in place of `sqlite3` if `sqlean.py` is installed
- Uses `sqlite-dump` if available and `conn.iterdump()` does not exist
- New `with db.ensure_autocommit_off()` method for ensuring autocommit is off, used by `enable_wal()` and `disable_wal()`.
