Added support for the SQL ``CREATE VIEW`` statement via the new
:class:`.CreateView` DDL class. The new class allows creating database
views from SELECT statements, with support for options such as
``TEMPORARY``, ``IF NOT EXISTS``, and ``MATERIALIZED`` where supported by
the target database. Views defined with :class:`.CreateView` integrate with
:class:`.MetaData` for automated DDL generation and provide a
:class:`.Table` object for querying.
this alters the CreateTableAs commit:
* adds the ability for Table to be associated with Create and Drop
DDL constructs
* Adds CreateView variant of CreateTableAs
* Both associate themselves with Table so they take place in
create_all/create/drop_all/drop

A series of improvements have been made for reflection of CHECK constraints
on SQLite. The reflection logic now correctly handles table names
containing the strings "CHECK" or "CONSTRAINT", properly supports all four
SQLite identifier quoting styles (double quotes, single quotes, brackets,
and backticks) for constraint names, and accurately parses CHECK constraint
expressions containing parentheses within string literals using balanced
parenthesis matching with string context tracking. Big thanks to
GruzdevAV for new test cases and implementation ideas.

this is many years overdue, let's do it while 2.1/2.0 are in
sync and we are far away from 1.4 now
