Subject: [PATCH] Make dialect-specific clause words non-reserved

CSV, FBV, FILE, SCRIPT and VERIFY (Exasol IMPORT/EXPORT), PREWHERE and
SETTINGS (ClickHouse) and RETURNS (CREATE FUNCTION) were reserved for
every dialect, so `SELECT settings, file FROM t` failed in PostgreSQL or
DuckDB, where they are ordinary names.

They are now non-reserved. PREWHERE and SETTINGS never start an implicit
alias, so the ClickHouse clauses still follow a table name.
TypeDdlName's SETTINGS special case and FILE's entry in the
reserved-as-identifier list are no longer needed.
