indexer.py: Use single items table with UPSERT

I was using two separate tables for item views and downloads without
realizing that SQLite didn't support FULL OUTER JOIN, which would be
needed to get views and downloads for a given item in a single query.

Instead I can use one table with a default value of 0 for both views
and downloads, and then use "UPSERT" to populate the statistics. This
is a newish SQL concept that allows you to attempt an INSERT and then
specify an action to perform in case of conflict. This works well in
SQLite and actually simplifies my Python logic greatly!

Note that the "excluded" table qualifier is a special keyword that
allows you to reference the value that would have been inserted.

See: https://www.sqlite.org/lang_UPSERT.html
