show_tables should be scraperwiki.sql.meta?

To keep it in some sync with new platform API.

Would return same JSON as new API.

@frabcus, if it is still a problem, can you please edit your issue to make it more clear what needs doing? Or of course close if it is now irrelevant. If it's a small thing I can just do it on the train.

There's a function scraperwiki.sqlite.show_tables, which does seem to be sqlite specific.

in the tools I have checked out on my machine only spreadsheet-upload-tool/code/extract.py seems to use it.

I don't know the answer - not sure if anyone else uses this function. I feel like it should turn into a scraperwiki.sql.meta and be as similar as possible to the Javascript API.
