csvsql: add an option to not show the name of the selected columns #1229

Hello there,

If would be cool to have an option to not show the name of the selected columns. To date, I always have to put | sed 1d after a csvsql --query to achieve this, which is quite useless.

Cheers !

Only csvformat has output configuration options. The other commands produce a consistent output.

You can do | csvformat -E (i.e. | csvformat --skip-header), but this is longer than | sed 1d (it is useful if the header contains newlines, or if you want to do other formatting changes).

We aren't going to add output format options to all commands, so this issue is wontfix.
