Create a public wrapper around the TableImpl and related meta data API

[lukaseder]

When not using the code generator but only plain SQL API, there are a number of caveats including:

• Tables don't know their columns
• Columns don't know their tables
• Tables don't know their constraints (primary, unique, foreign keys)
• Tables don't know their identities

Users might be able to provide this information, but the only way to currently do it is to subtype the internal TableImpl API and do exactly what the code generator does.

We should have a public API in DSL that allows for creating such "complete", yet still "plain SQL" tables much more easily.

Really need this feature.
I use Kotlin and Record information can be generated from class definition using https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28391889/kotlin-reflection-get-list-of-fields
will be great if this information can be provided in another way then creating a class for Record

@raderio Thank you for your feedback. For the time being, you can write your own private API that maps to TableImpl. Or use it directly.
