Database and SQL with csvkit

The addition of csvsql and sql2csv allows us to go through an entire data workflow inside the terminal without needing to install and set up additional SQL clients and software. In this capstone, we will put together and pull data from a SQLite database, merge this data with a locally saved file, and finally, push a final merged file back to the database, all without ever leaving the command line.
