[UWS,TAP] Review the standard parameters checking. Particularly, because before, the default value was never used while no value was specified by the user.

[ADQL,TAP] Add geometry format in output and correct upload of STC-S regions. Geometrical type conversion from and into a DB type is now required in all JDBCTranslator. This allows formatting of geometrical column value coming from the database, but also the translation of STC-S expressions provided in uploaded table into geometrical column values.

[ADQL,TAP] Add STC-S and UDFs support in the ADQL parser. Now, it is possible to provide a list of allowed UDFs, regions and coordinate systems. The ServiceConnection of TAP is now able to provide these lists and to propagate them to the ADQLExecutor. UDFs and allowed regions are now listed automatically in the /capabilities resource of TAP. The type 'geometry' is now fully supported in ADQL. That's why the new function 'isGeometry()' has been added to all ADQLOperand extensions. Now the DBChecker is also able to check roughly types of columns and UDFs (unknown when parsing syntactically a query). The syntax of STC-S regions (expressed in the REGION function) are now checked by DBChecker. However, for the moment, geometries are not serialized in STC-S in the output....but it should be possible in some way in the next commit(s).

[UWS,TAP] Fix timestamp format. Now, each returned date will expressed in UTC and using the ISO8601 format. Any given date is also expected in UTC (or with a time zone offset) and in ISO8601Format. These rules apply also for uploaded tables and for timestamp columns in a query result.

[UWS,TAP] Review the exceptions and logs management + Add log file rotation (with a configurable rotation frequency)

[TAP] Remake TAPFactory into an abstract class + let limit the number of jobs (async and sync) by allowing the TAPFactory to communicate with a connection pool

[TAP,ADQL] Improve and remake a part of the database connection. Missing javadoc has been added when missing in the modified tables.

[TAP] Replace Savot by STIL + Change datatype management in TAPColumn (vot-type is no more available from here), TAPType (no votable type inside it) and VotType (can now be created from a TAPType instance + a VotType instance can be converted easily in a TAPType object)

[TAP] Remove all generic types + Delete specific (for ResultSet) output formatters + Modify the main output formatter

[TAP] Improve TableIterator + Adapt ResultSetTableIterator (particularly because of the last commit about TAPType and VotType) + Add a TableIterator for VOTable input: VOTableIterator + Add its JUnit test case

[TAP] Add the interface TableIterator (whose implementations let iterate over any kind of table data set) and its first implementation for ResultSet + JUnit test case

Remove useless and blocking test (when url-pattern in web.xml is set to the root: /*) in the UWS URL parsing. + Add very basic check on its implementation

ADQL: Completely change/improve Joins management, and particularly NATURAL JOIN and USING JOIN. Now, every joined columns are represented by a DBCommonColumn instance which has a given table coverage.
Before, there was a problem while using at least 3 or 4 NATURAL JOINs. Bug raised by Menelaos Perdikeas (ESAC).
