[Featureserver] Title on SQLite attributes table

[Brent Pedersen]

oops, i didnt mean to take this off list.
peter sent a patch and i fixed tests and applied in r606. it seems to
clean up the SQLite datasource nicely.
let me know if any problems.
may be good to give peter commit access for any future changes.
