  Description     : Finds a DateTime::Format parser class for a database connection

DateTime::Format::DBI finds a DateTime::Format::* class that is suitable 
for the use with a given DBI connection (and DBD::* driver).

It currently supports the following format modules: IBM DB2 
(DB2)|DateTime::Format::DB2, MySQL|DateTime::Format::MySQL, 
Oracle|DateTime::Format::Oracle, PostgreSQL (Pg)|DateTime::Format::Pg, 
SQLite|DateTime::Format::SQLite.

NOTE: This module provides a quick method to find the correct parser and 
formatter class. However, this is usually not sufficient for full 
database abstraction. You will also have to cater for differences in the 
syntax and semantics of SQL datetime functions (and other SQL commands).
