When adding a custom table no error messages is given if the table can't be created. It just doesn't seem to do anything. The error can be found in the Drupal reports log but we need something to give the user more feedback.

Also when adding a new custom table it should check if the table is already defined to Tripal. If so, it shouldn't allow it to be added.

User will receive meaningful error messages if there is a problem with the table schema or if the table name is a duplicate of another. If the user changes the name of an existing table it will now also check to make sure that tables doesn't exist before re-creating it.
