add an attribute for returning the driver name

Add PDO_FETCH_NAMED; closes PECL #4641 by providing a way to access columns
by name, even when multiple columns have the same name:

$sql = "SELECT 1 a, 2 a, 3 b, 4 c, 5 d, 6 c, 7 a";

$sql = "SELECT 1 a, 2 a, 3 b, 4 c, 5 d, 6 c, 7 a";
echo "$sql\n";
print_r($db->query($sql)->fetchAll(PDO_FETCH_NAMED));

Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[a] => Array
(
[0] => 1
[1] => 2
[2] => 7
)

[b] => 3
[c] => Array
(
[0] => 4
[1] => 6
)

[d] => 5
)
)

Also added two new attributes for use at prepare time;
PDO_ATTR_FETCH_TABLE_NAMES and PDO_ATTR_FETCH_CATALOG_NAMES instruct the driver
that the names of the columns that they return to PDO should include the table
and catalog names respectively. Both attributes may be used together or
independently. The catalog, table and column name components should be
separated by a . character.

Fix a dumb bug that would effecively ignore persistent connections and create a
new one each time.

Add a hook for persistent connections: it is called when the object goes out of
scope, and offers the driver an opportunity to release per-request scoped data
at the right time.

This hook is used by pdo_sqlite to unregister UDFs, which are dangerous to keep
registered between requests.

Various compiler warning fixes.

- Reserve some bits for flags

- Add some fetch column related capailities
- Add direct (classtype based) unserializing capabilities

Alan: moved your fields away, but reserved you a pointer.

Changed PDO::lastInsertId() to have following proto:

string PDO::lastInsertId([string name])

this allows arbitrary unique identitifers to be returned from the driver.

The optional name parameter is for databases that require additional contextual
information to be able to return the correct identifier. None currently use
it, but pgsql will be on the list of drivers that do.

implement mapping of :name to ? parameters for drivers that only support ?
placeholders.
The current restriction is that you may not use the same named parameter
more than one in a given query, as there is a danger of scary things happen
with the zval if it gets bound multiple times.

fix typo

add input/output parameter type flag

add a caller_frees parameter to get_col() to allow drivers that need
to allocate data on demand to do so without worrying about cleaning it up.

Spec out how LOB parameters are returned.

pass param type to quoter functions

make this the right size...

Revise query parser so that it can rewrite from one bind syntax to another.
Expose it as PDO_API. No drivers utilize this feature yet.

Eliminate unused parameter

Allow drivers to select bind emulation on a per statement basis

Remove bogus scroll attribute.
Expose cursor constants to the script
