Updated databases/p5-DBI 1.54 -> 1.56:

Changes in 1.56:

Fixed printf arg warnings thanks to JDHEDDEN.
  Fixed returning driver-private sth attributes via gofer.

  Changed pod docs docs to use =head3 instead of =item
    so now in html you get links to individual methods etc.
  Changed default gofer retry_limit from 2 to 0.
  Changed tests to workaround Math::BigInt broken versions.
  Changed dbi_profile_merge() to dbi_profile_merge_nodes()
    old name still works as an alias for the new one.

  Added DBI_GOFER_RANDOM env var that can be use to trigger random
    failures and delays when executing gofer requests. Designed to help
    test automatic retry on failures and timeout handling.
  Added lots more docs to all the DBD::Gofer and DBI::Gofer classes.


Changes in 1.55:

Fixed set_err() so HandleSetErr hook is executed reliably, if set.
  Fixed accuracy of profiling when perl configured to use long doubles.
  Fixed 42prof_data.t on fast systems with poor timers thanks to Malcolm Nooning.
  Fixed potential corruption in selectall_arrayref and selectrow_arrayref
    for compiled drivers, thanks to Rob Davies.
    Rebuild your compiled drivers after installing DBI.

  Changed some handle creation code from perl to C code,
    to reduce handle creation cost by ~20%.
  Changed internal implementation of the CachedKids attribute
    so it's a normal handle attribute (and initially undef).
  Changed connect_cached and prepare_cached to avoid a FETCH method call,
    and thereby reduced cost by ~5% and ~30% respectively.
  Changed _set_fbav to not croak when given a wrongly sized array,
    it now warns and adjusts the row buffer to match.
  Changed some internals to improve performance with threaded perls.
  Changed DBD::NullP to be slightly more useful for testing.
  Changed File::Spec prerequisite to not require a minimum version.
  Changed tests to work with other DBMs thanks to ZMAN.
  Changed ex/perl_dbi_nulls_test.pl to be more descriptive.

  Added more functionality to the (undocumented) Callback mechanism.
    Callbacks can now elect to provide a value to be returned, in which case
    the method won't be called. A callback for "*" is applied to all methods
    that don't have their own callback.
  Added $h->{ReadOnly} attribute.
  Added support for DBI Profile Path to contain refs to scalars
    which will be de-ref'd for each profile sample.
  Added dbilogstrip utility to edit DBI logs for diff'ing (gets installed)
  Added details for SQLite 3.3 to NULL handling docs thanks to Alex Teslik.
  Added take_imp_data() to DBI::PurePerl.

  Gofer related changes:
    Fixed gofer pipeone & stream transports to avoid risk of hanging.
    Improved error handling and tracing significantly.
    Added way to generate random 1-in-N failures for methods.
    Added automatic retry-on-error mechanism to gofer transport base class.
    Added tests to show automatic retry mechanism works a treat!
    Added go_retry_hook callback hook so apps can fine-tune retry behaviour.
    Added header to request and response packets for sanity checking
      and to enable version skew between client and server.
    Added forced_single_resultset, max_cached_sth_per_dbh and max_cached_dbh_per_drh
      to gofer executor config.
    Driver-private methods installed with install_method are now proxied.
    No longer does a round-trip to the server for methods it knows
      have not been overridden by the remote driver.
    Most significant aspects of gofer behaviour are controlled by policy mechanism.
    Added policy-controlled caching of results for some methods, such as schema metadata.
    The connect_cached and prepare_cached methods cache on client and server.
    The bind_param_array and execute_array methods are now supported.
    Worked around a DBD::Sybase bind_param bug (which is fixed in DBD::Sybase 1.07)
    Added goferperf.pl utility (doesn't get installed).
    Many other assorted Gofer related bug fixes, enhancements and docs.
    The http and mod_perl transports have been remove to their own distribution.
    Client and server will need upgrading together for this release.
