Description

It would be very helpful to have a "CLEAR" command to clear the cqlsh console. I learned (after researching a patch for this) that lowercase CTRL+L will clear the screen, but having a discrete command would make that more obvious. To match the expectations of Windows users, an alias to "CLS" would be nice as well.
