`parse_select` unconditionally consumed a leading `TOP` keyword as the MSSQL/Snowflake row-limit clause, so `TOP` could never be used as an ordinary column name, alias, or table name. `SELECT top FROM t` failed with `Expected: literal int, found: FROM`. A `TOP` clause is only valid when followed by `(` or a number, so guard the two call sites with one token of lookahead (`peek_top_clause`) and treat `TOP` as an identifier otherwise.

thinking one improvement we could do while we're making this change, can we move the expect_keyword into the parse_top function? that way the function is standalone (we can change the other callsite below to remove its expect_keyword to match)

actually instead of having a peek and a parse for the top clause, we could change parse_top_clause to maybe_parse_top_clause() -> Option<>then the callers only need to check the dialect support and call if set

…docs/architecture/alerts.md` (apache#2398) * Task LAV-1895: GRANT ON ALERT, Island alert end-to-end, alerts architecture doc Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> * Keep the relation-kind grant arm short so rustfmt leaves its body alone Adding `| "ALERT"` to the `"TABLE" | "VIEW" | "SECRET"` arm pushed it past 100 columns, so rustfmt re-indented the two `map_or_else` closures. Their content is unchanged from main, but the patch-coverage gate diffs by line and counted the already-uncovered `Err` fallback as new — 83.3%, below the 90% threshold. Move the kind list into a named predicate. The arm head fits again, the closure lines stay byte-identical, and the patch is back to the lines the ALERT work actually adds.

Fixes #2046.

TOPclause is only everTOP (expr)orTOP <number>, soparse_topaccepts nothing else. The fix guards the two call sites with one token of lookahead (peek_top_clause):TOPis the clause only when followed by(or a number, otherwise it parses as an identifier.
