Oracle session variable preinitialization

Included is an event subscriber that automatically sets Oracle session variables required by DBAL and Doctrine ORM to work properly (date formats etc).

Unlike the DBAL default implementation, this can be added globally, and will check / only act on Oracle DBAL connections. All other connection types will be completely left alone.

This makes it easier to use in mixed multi-connection setups, and indeed safe to use with zero Oracle connections.

Usage

With doctrine/dbal-bundle installed, you can register the included AddOracleSessionInitPass into your Symfony container build, or use the PassIndex to do it for you.

# Bundle class
public function build(ContainerBuilder $container)
{
    <...>
    PassIndex::autoRegisterAll($container);
    <...>
}

# Kernel class
public function buildContainer()
{
    $container = parent::buildContainer();
    <...>
    PassIndex::autoRegisterAll($container);
    <...>
    return $container;
}

Standalone DBAL

Without Symfony and the Doctrine bundle, compiler passes won't work.

The OnDemandOracleSessionInit subscriber instance needs to be added to the connection's event manager in some other way to do anything.
