DBWS utility enhancement: Naming convention of generated schema types

bug 234677
The DBWSBuilder utility should allow the user to alter the names of the generated schema types.
The algorithm currently in use is very simple:

  • table name ==> translate any characters un-supported by XML1 ==> to_lowercase ==> add suffix 'Type' ==> top-level complex element type in .xsd file
  • column name ==> translate characters ==> to_lowercase ==> element tag name2

1 - same algorithm documented as part of the SQL/X specification (a.k.a. ISO/IEC 9075-14:2003 Part 14)
2 - All columns expressed as XML elements
