[test] New Handling of database for test.
This patch adds a new TestDataBaseHandler class.
TestDataBaseHandler are in charge of Setup, backup, restore, connection,
repository caching and cleanup for database used during the test.
TestDataBaseHandler reuse code and logic previously found in cubicweb.devtools
functions and devtools.testlib.CubicwebTC. TestDataBaseHandler is an abstract
class and must be subclassed to implement functionalities specific to each
driver.
TestDataBaseHandler can store and restore various database setups.
devtools.testlib.CubicwebTC gains a test_db_id class attribute to specify that
its TestCase uses a specific database that should be cached. The
pre_setup_database class method is used to setup the database that will be
cached. The setup_database method is kept uncached.
The same TestDataBaseHandler are reused for every test using the same config
object. TestDataBaseHandler try to reuse Repository objects as much as
possible.
All cubicweb test have been updated.

=====================================================
|cubicweb| - The Semantic Web is a construction game!
=====================================================
|cubicweb| is a semantic web application framework, licensed under the LGPL,
that empowers developers to efficiently build web applications by reusing
components (called `cubes`) and following the well known object-oriented design
principles.
Its main features are:
* an engine driven by the explicit :ref:`data model
<TutosBaseCustomizingTheApplicationDataModel>` of the application,
* a query language named :ref:`RQL <RQL>` similar to W3C's SPARQL,
* a :ref:`selection+view <TutosBaseCustomizingTheApplicationCustomViews>`
mechanism for semi-automatic XHTML/XML/JSON/text generation,
* a library of reusable :ref:`components <Cube>` (data model and views) that
fulfill common needs,
* the power and flexibility of the Python_ programming language,
* the reliability of SQL databases, LDAP directories, Subversion and Mercurial
for storage backends.
Built since 2000 from an R&D effort still continued, supporting 100,000s of
daily visits at some production sites, |cubicweb| is a proven end to end solution
for semantic web application development that promotes quality, reusability and
efficiency.

The impatient developer will move right away to :ref:`SetUpEnv`.
