The tracked `ahash` no longer builds in nightly as some SIMD features were dropped.
This is awfully surprising to new users, and I think it's a bad thing to do even if people more familiar with SQL DB engines won't be too surprised about it.

This is a breaking change, but given the nature of the tool it's an improvement too, as this normalisation prevents querying non-snake_case tables and fields coming from imported files (csv, parquet, etc...). This is also untested, but I didn't find existing tests to mimic. I did try a local build and runs as expected. I was now able to query sample parquet files for Iris data from https://www.tablab.app/parquet/sample, which is the kind of thing that |
