Description

We only have minimal test coverage of IF [NOT] EXISTS conditions for DDL statements. I think dtests are the right place to add those tests.

We need to cover:

• CREATE KEYSPACE IF NOT EXISTS
• DROP KEYSPACE IF EXISTS
• CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS
• DROP TABLE IF EXISTS
• CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS
• DROP INDEX IF EXISTS
• CREATE TYPE IF NOT EXISTS
• DROP TYPE IF EXISTS

The tests should also ensure that InvalidRequestExceptions are thrown if, for example, you try to drop an index from a keyspace that doesn't exist (regardless of whether IF EXISTS is used).
