Add HINT for COPY TO when WHERE clause is used.
COPY TO does not support a WHERE clause, and currently fails with the error:
ERROR: WHERE clause not allowed with COPY TO
Since the intended behavior can be achieved by using
COPY (SELECT ... WHERE ...) TO, this commit adds a HINT
to the error message:
HINT: Try the COPY (SELECT ... WHERE ...) TO variant.
This makes the error more informative and helps users
quickly find the alternative usage.
