Fix infinite loop in Parser.with_names for malformed WITH statements

Resolves #556.

The parser would hang indefinitely when encountering malformed SQL with
consecutive AS keywords in WITH clauses (e.g., "WITH a AS (...) AS g").

The issue was in the with_names property loop: after processing a WITH
clause, if the next token was another AS keyword (invalid syntax), the
parser would not advance the token, causing an infinite loop.

This fix:
- Detects malformed SQL with consecutive AS keywords after WITH queries
- Raises ValueError("This query is wrong") instead of hanging
- Ensures the token always advances to prevent infinite loops
- Adds test case to verify the fix
