[GRASS-dev] New: v.db.droprow

Hi,

Done in r38716.

Also not sure if we need this script. In any case the name is probably
misleading. Prefix 'v.db' indicates that the module modifies only
attribute data, not geometry(?)

I have some questions regarding Bash script:

* are these extra checks needed (it's done by v.extract) [1,2]
* unused variables [3]
* G_OPT_OUTPUT instead of G_OPT_INPUT? [4]

Thanks, Martin
