No_Sync via CLI: The no_sync option can now be specified with the --no-sync parameter via the CLI on write commands (#26703)

Bug Fixes

• Tag and field names are validated when creating tables (#26641)
• Using GROUP BY twice on the same column no longer causes incorrect data (#26732)

Security & Misc
