Support for window functions like RANK #188

Description

@stevenwdv

The validator marks queries with an alias (with or without AS) after window functions like RANK, DENSE_RANK, ROW_NUMBER, CUME_DIST, etc. as incorrect:
SELECT RANK() OVER(ORDER BY NULL) rank

[
  {
    "message": "An alias was previously found. (near <code>rank</code>)",
    "fromLine": 0,
    "fromColumn": 34,
    "toLine": 0,
    "toColumn": 38,
    "severity": "error"
  },
  {
    "message": "Unexpected token. (near <code>rank</code>)",
    "fromLine": 0,
    "fromColumn": 34,
    "toLine": 0,
    "toColumn": 38,
    "severity": "error"
  }
]

Support for this type of functions is probably not present yet, but weirdly enough the validator doesn't complain for queries without alias.

PHPMyAdmin 4.7.9
MariaDB 10.3.1 (window functions are supported since 10.2.0)

Update: these will also be supported in MySQL 8.0
