Implements #13950
This PR unifies
SHOW/DESCRIBE
for tables and for queries. Instead of having a separate code path for whenDESCRIBE [table]
is called that directly accesses the underlyingTableCatalogEntry
- we now instead traverse the query plan inDESCRIBE [query]
to retrieve constraint information. As a result, we now display constraint information also for queries likeDESCRIBE SELECT * FROM tbl
, orDESCRIBE SELECT col_name FROM tbl
.In addition, this PR also makes replacement scans work with describe - i.e. we can now run
DESCRIBE "file.parquet"
orDESCRIBE df
directly.
