CREATE TABLE creates a table with the given name. You must have the
CREATE privilege for the table.
Rules for permissible table names are given in
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/identifiers.html. By default,
the table is created in the default database, using the InnoDB storage
engine. An error occurs if the table exists, if there is no default
database, or if the database does not exist.
