Data type tables in plugin tabular v0.5.1

Multiple tabular data sets.

The data is organized in sets of tables (which are sets of columns), each table having a string identifier.

This is similar to the 'database' data type, the main difference being that 'database' is backed by sqlite, whereas 'tables' is backed by Apache Feather/Arrow. There is no hard rule when it's better to use which, but in general, if you need to access the datasets on a row-basis, 'database' is the better fit, for more column-based analytical queries, 'tables' is better.
