Aliases without AS keyword

[nijel]

Having the AS keyword in the select expression is option, following both should work:

SELECT 1 AS name;
SELECT 1 name;

But the shorter variant fails:

$ ./bin/lint-query --query 'SELECT 1 name'
#1: Unrecognized keyword. (near "name" at position 9)

Yes. That's right.

These SQL syntax are valid in MySQL.

And it should be fixed.
