Hi hackers,
Many thanks for the review!
Here is a patch updated according to all the recent feedback, except
for two suggestions:

The documentation for ADD COLUMN simply says:
```
<para>
This form adds a new column to the table, using the same syntax as
<link linkend="sql-createtable"><command>CREATE
TABLE</command></link>. If <literal>IF NOT EXISTS</literal>
is specified and a column already exists with this name,
no error is thrown.
</para>
```
I suggest keeping a reference to CREATE TABLE, similarly as it was
done for ALTER COLUMN.
> Now that we have three column options COMPRESSION, COLLATE and STORGE
> which has the strict order in syntax. I wonder it can be relaxed but
> it might be too much..
Agree, this could be a bit too much for this particular discussion.
Although this shouldn't be a difficult change, and I agree that this
should be useful, personally I don't feel enthusiastic enough to
deliver it right now. I suggest we address this later.
