Add domain support#434

Description

A domain is "essentially a data type with optional constraints". You can think of them as type aliases. By using a domain, you can easily create custom types. For example, here's how you could create a KSUID type.

CREATEDOMAINksuidASVARCHAR(27) NOT NULL; CREATETABLEfoo ( id ksuid PRIMARY KEY, created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW() ); CREATETABLEbar ( id ksuid PRIMARY KEY, created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW(), foo_id ksuid REFERENCES foo(id), name textNOT NULL, slug textNOT NULL UNIQUE );

The advantage to using a domain is that you'd only need one entry in overrides

overrides: - db_type: "ksuid"go_type: "github.com/segmentio/ksuid.KSUID"

Replaces #418
