where
-----
The "where" mechanism implements SQL's WHERE clause.
.actor | where(.actor_id > 10 && .first_name == "TOM")
From a SQL perspective, "where" is the natural name to use. However,
and inconveniently, jq uses "select" for this purpose.
https://jqlang.github.io/jq/manual/v1.6/#select(boolean_expression)
One of sq's design principles is to adhere to jq syntax whenver possible.
Alas, for SQL users, "select" means "SELECT these columns", not "select
the matching rows".
It's unclear what the best approach is here, so for now, we will allow
both "where" and "select", and plan to deprecate one of these after user
feedback.

group_by
-------

Syonyms:

https://stedolan.github.io/jq/manual/v1.6/#group_by(path_expression)
- 'group': for legacy sq compabibility. Should this be deprecated and removed?

/*
order_by
------
The 'order_by' construct implements the SQL "ORDER BY" clause.
.actor | order_by(.first_name, .last_name)
.actor | order_by(.first_name+)
.actor | order_by(.actor.first_name-)
The optional plus/minus tokens specify ASC or DESC order.
Synonyms:
- 'sort_by' for jq interoperability.
https://stedolan.github.io/jq/manual/v1.6/#sort,sort_by(path_expression)
We do not implement a 'sort' synonym for the jq 'sort' function, because SQL
results are inherently sorted. Although perhaps it should be implemented
as a no-op.
