 - Add the `from(table)` method to generated databases. It can be used to write
   common queries more concisely.
 - Make `groupConcat` nullable in the Dart API.
-- Throw an exception in a `NativeDatabase` when multiple statements are run in
-  a single call. In previous versions, parts of the SQL string would otherwise
-  be ignored.
