[GRASS-dev] v.in.db should look for file

Now that Martin fixed the wxPython gui for v.in.db, I see a problem I
had not previously noticed. That is, the module looks for vector
tables. However, the objective of this module is to find a database
table (recognized by a GRASS driver) anywhere on a user's computer and
create vector points from its x and y coordinates.
So instead of looking for a vector table, it should be looking for a
file. In main.c (lines 56-58), would this be ...
table_opt = G_define_standard_option(G_OPT_F_INPUT);
table_opt->required = YES;
table_opt->description = _("Input table name");
instead of the current...
table_opt = G_define_standard_option(G_OPT_TABLE);
table_opt->required = YES;
table_opt->description = _("Input table name");
??
I'd change this, but I'm not sure if anything else needs to change too.
