Revert #17295 (Support from-first SQL syntax) (#17520) (#17544)

* Add failing test

* Fix regression in SELECT FROM syntax with WHERE clause

When using 'SELECT FROM table WHERE condition', the query should create
an empty projection (no columns) while still filtering rows. This was
broken by PR #17295 which added FROM-first syntax support.

The issue was that both 'FROM table' and 'SELECT FROM table' resulted
in empty projection lists, making them indistinguishable. The fix checks
for the presence of a WHERE clause to differentiate:
- 'FROM table' (no WHERE) -> add wildcard projection (all columns)
- 'SELECT FROM table WHERE ...' -> keep empty projection

Also updates the test expectation to correctly show the empty Projection
node in the query plan.

Fixes #17513

* Revert

* Fix regression: SELECT FROM syntax should return empty projection

Removes automatic wildcard projection for empty projections, fixing
the regression where `SELECT FROM table` incorrectly returned all
columns instead of empty projection.

Note: This temporarily breaks FROM-first syntax. A proper fix would
require distinguishing between `FROM table` and `SELECT FROM table`
at the parser level.

Fixes #17513

Website | API Docs | Chat

DataFusion is an extensible query engine written in Rust that uses Apache Arrow as its in-memory format.

This crate provides libraries and binaries for developers building fast and feature rich database and analytic systems, customized to particular workloads. See use cases for examples. The following related subprojects target end users:

“Out of the box,” DataFusion offers [SQL] and [Dataframe] APIs, excellent performance, built-in support for CSV, Parquet, JSON, and Avro, extensive customization, and a great community.

DataFusion features a full query planner, a columnar, streaming, multi-threaded, vectorized execution engine, and partitioned data sources. You can customize DataFusion at almost all points including additional data sources, query languages, functions, custom operators and more. See the Architecture section for more details.

Here are links to some important information

What can you do with this crate?

DataFusion is great for building projects such as domain specific query engines, new database platforms and data pipelines, query languages and more. It lets you start quickly from a fully working engine, and then customize those features specific to your use. Click Here to see a list known users.

DataFusion API Evolution and Deprecation Guidelines

Public methods in Apache DataFusion evolve over time: while we try to maintain a stable API, we also improve the API over time. As a result, we typically deprecate methods before removing them, according to the deprecation guidelines.

Dependencies and Cargo.lock

Following the guidance on committing Cargo.lock files, this project commits its Cargo.lock file.

CI uses the committed Cargo.lock file, and dependencies are updated regularly using Dependabot PRs.
