Add support for dbversion and dbmodule handling in swh db init

for now, managing the dbversion table (storing the db schema upgrade history) is partially the responsibility of the swh modules implementing a datastore (swh-storage etc.), and the actual swh module was not stored in the database.

This adds support for both the dbversion and dbmodule tables management in swh.core.db.

The swh db init command now creates both these tables and initialise their values if possible. For this, it introduces a new common "API" for swh.core.db based datastores:

  • a swh module implementing a datastore is expected to have a get_datastore function in its top namespace; this function is typically the actual get_storage, get_scheduler etc. functions
  • this factory function is expected to use the "postgresql" cls for the datastore based on swh.core.db,
  • the datastore instance (eg. instance of the swh.storage.postgresql.Storage class) is expected to have a get_current_version() method (returning an int).

This revision also provides a new swh db version command displaying the current (code) version (if avalable), the db version (possibly the whole version history) and flavor (if any) for the datastore given as argument.

It should be bacward compatible with eisting swh datastore modules (i.e. not adapter to this new API).
