This patch restores the ability to request a DBI database handle
or a DBIx::Class schema object connected to a PostgreSQL database.
To address the concerns raised in bug 7188, only "mysql" and "Pg"
are recognized as valid DB schemes. If anything else is passed
to C4::Context::db_scheme2dbi or set as the db_scheme in the Koha
configuration file, the DBD driver to load is assumed to be "mysql".
Note that this patch drops any pretense of Oracle support.
To test:
[1] Apply patch, and verify that the database-dependent tests
pass when run against a MySQL Koha database.
[2] To test against PostgreSQL, create a Pg database and
edit koha-conf.xml to set db_scheme to Pg (and adjust
the other DB connection parameters appropriately). The
following tests should pass, at minimum:
t/Context.t
t/db_dependent/Koha_Database.t

Works as described, some additional notes:
- Installed Postgres following
http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/PostgreSQL
- Created a database user koha
- Created a database koha
- Changed the koha-conf.xml file
<db_scheme>Pg</db_scheme>
<database>koha</database>
<hostname>localhost</hostname>
<port>5432</port>
<user>koha</user>
<pass>xxxx</pass>
- Installed libdbd-pg-perl
- Ran the web installer until step 3 everything looked ok
Step 3 complains:
Password for user koha: psql: fe_sendauth: no password supplied
- Both t/Context.t and t/db_dependent/Koha_Database.t pass
