Remove dimensions from TEXT and FLOAT

[americast]

Users can now create a table with just FLOAT without providing the dimensions.

Earlier:

CREATE TABLE ETTM1 (
        date TEXT(30),
        hufl FLOAT(5,7),
        hull FLOAT(5,7),
        mufl FLOAT(5,7),
        mull FLOAT(5,7),
        lufl FLOAT(5,7),
        lull FLOAT(5,7),
        ot FLOAT(5,7));

Now:

CREATE TABLE ETTM1 (
        date TEXT,
        hufl FLOAT,
        hull FLOAT,
        mufl FLOAT,
        mull FLOAT,
        lufl FLOAT,
        lull FLOAT,
        ot FLOAT);

Fixes #1260.

Thanks for simplifying the type specification. Please fix the unit test cases: test/unit_tests/parser/test_parser.py::ParserTests::test_create_table_statement

Hi @americast, Looks good. I will add some documentation.

Thanks @xzdandy. Do you think there is a need to include support for backward compatibility?

That's a good point. We can check if the tree has a child in the parser, and still visits it, if it has and skip if it doesn't. Thanks for thinking about backward compatibility!
