MINOR: cli: Report location of errors or any extra data for "show table"
When using multiple filters with "show table", it can be useful to
report which filter entry failed
> show table MY_TABLE data.gpc0 gt 0 data.gpc0a lt 1000
Filter entry #2: Unknown data type
> show table MY_TABLE data.gpc0 gt 0 data.gpc0 lt 1000a
Filter entry #2: Require a valid integer value to compare against
We now also catch garbage data after the filter
> show table MY_TABLE data.gpc0 gt 0 data.gpc0 lt 1000 data.gpc0 gt 1\
data.gpc0 gt 10 a
Detected extra data in filter, 16th word of input, after '10'
Even before multi-filter feature we've also silently accepted garbage
after the input, hiding potential bugs
> show table MY_TABLE data.gpc0 gt 0 data.gpc0
or
> show table MY_TABLE data.gpc0 gt 0 a
In both cases, only first filter entry would be used, silently ignoring
extra filter entry or garbage data.
Last, but not the least, it is now possible to detect multi-filter
feature from cli with something like the following:
> show table MY_TABLE data.blah
Filter entry #1: Unknown data type
