Microsoft SQL Server does not use LIMIT syntax to limit the query result set. Instead, the syntax is
SELECT TOP (numeric expression) [PERCENT] [WITH TIES]See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/queries/top-transact-sql
This is for Issue #149
This adds a
Topchild struct to theSelectstruct. It may or may not be problematic thatSelectwould now haveTopnested in it, while the outerQuerystruct has alimitfield, whenTOPandLIMIThave basically the same meaning in different SQL dialects. But sinceTOPis part of theSELECTclause in MSSQL's grammar, this seemed to be the most straightforward way to achieve support for it. Open to suggestions!
