We may also find that there are tables where we don't want to show all of the columns - so a mechanism to select a subset of columns would be nice.
I think there are two features here:
* the ability to request a subset of columns on the table view
* the ability to override the SQL for a specific column and/or add extra columns - `AsGeoJSON(Geometry)` for example
Both features should be available via both querystring arguments and in `metadata.json`
The querystring argument for custom SQL should only work if `allow_sql` config is turned on.

The term `UPSERT` in SQLite has a specific meaning as-of 3.24.0 (2018-06-04): https://www.sqlite.org/lang_UPSERT.html
It means ""behave as an UPDATE or a no-op if the INSERT would violate a uniqueness constraint"". The syntax in 3.24.0+ looks like this (confusingly it does not use the term ""upsert""):
```sql
INSERT INTO phonebook(name,phonenumber) VALUES('Alice','704-555-1212')
ON CONFLICT(name) DO UPDATE SET phonenumber=excluded.phonenumber
```
Here's the problem: the `sqlite-utils` `.upsert()` and `.upsert_all()` methods don't do this. They use the following SQL:
```sql
INSERT OR REPLACE INTO [{table}] ({columns}) VALUES {rows};
```
If the record already exists, it will be entirely replaced by a new record - as opposed to updating any specified fields but leaving existing fields as they are (the behaviour of ""upsert"" in SQLite itself).",140912432,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/66/reactions"", ""total_count"": 1, ""+1"": 1, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,completed
