Convert Mimir <-> Vizual interface to RA #3

Open okennedy opened 6 years ago

At present, Vizier converts Vizual scripts into SQL before passing it to Mimir.

SQL is a recipe for parsing errors, unescaped strings, and other forms of suffering. Fortunately, Mimir supports a more direct interface: Relational Algebra encoded via JSON.
