[#7] Avoid use of EXTRACT keyword for columns that are not computed columns

Sam Habiel requested to merge shabiel/YDBOctoVistA:ddl7-avoid-extract-for-non-computed-columns into master

As discussed in the linked issue (#7 (comment 708006243)), we use the SQL EXTRACT keyword for both $EXTRACT data in Fileman and actual computed columns. Therefore, it's impossible to change the implementation until Octo itself can separate out EXTRACT into true extracts and computed data.

Word processing fields can be successfully changed to use DELIM "", which is the only change in the DDL generator that this commit does.

ci/test.sh was updated as YDBOcto@78632a2d changed the name of the test in Octo from test_vista to test_vista_database.
