New feature: cookie namespaces

So far, all OpenACS versions used "ad_" as a prefix for cookies (such

as ad_login, ad_session_id, ...). In certain situations this can lead

to confusion, since cookies are managed by browsers via domain names,

and running multiple OpenACS instances in the same domain will cause

overwriting of such cookies by these instances. The can happen e.g.

when running multiple instances on the same machine, or using

port-forwarding to virtual machines/containers, using reverse proxies,

etc. Note that the cookie overwriting problem does not exist for

host-node-mapped subsites, since host-node-mapping depends on domain

names.

One could consider using the port in the cookie name (as

sometimes noted as an option), but this would not work, in case the

same server should be reachable over multiple ports.

Therefore, one can now specify a "CookieNamespace" in the OpenACS

configuration file, which is per default "ad_", which is sufficient

for the majority of installations. In cases, where it is needed, a

different CookieNamespace can now be configured.

To manage the cookie names internally, OpenACS provides a new API call

security::cookie_name to derive the namespaced cookie name from a stem.

Reintroduce :num_count variable in postgres query, as for oracle counterpart (for postgres, 15 was hardcoded)

Notes:

- :num_count comes from a parameter, defaulting to 100, instead of 15

- postgres 9.5 introduced table sampling, similar to what oracle does (but with different syntax)

- this postgres query would be portable, except for random()... maybe the random value could come from tcl...

moved "populate_secrect" to "sec_*" prefix to reduce clobbering of global namespace

Fixed this stuff so it works with Oracle and Postgres both, sharing as much

code as possible (or at least as I can make possible).

Fixed the 4K character limit on session properties for Oracle by making an

optional "clob" value available. The APM wouldn't let me load any packages

when I added all the dotLRN packages plus standard packages over to a new

"dotlrn" user from my normal "acs" user - the list of packages grew to

> 4KB in size! Grrrr!

Renamed a column named "timestamp" in the security package because this is

now a reserved word in PG (correctly). I changed the Oracle version, too,

because I know that 9i has added the "timestamp" datatype and even if it

will accept it as a column name it's confusing.

I also changes postgresql.sql to load correctly under PG 7.1 and 7.2.
