Updates to three scripts

Database/edit_episode: updated a message

Database/query2csv, Database/query2tt2: updated both scripts to handle
    SQLite and MySQL databases; both take (almost) the same options;
    both query a database in a similar way with arguments to match
    placeholders; 'query2tt2' takes a TT² template and options to feed
    to it; converted the database connection section to a function
    'db_connect'; both have comprehensive POD documentation.

# placeholders they can be filled with -dbarg=ARG options.

=head1 NAME
query2csv - A script for generating CSV from database query
=head1 VERSION
This documentation refers to query2csv version 0.0.4
=head1 USAGE
query2csv [-help] [-documentation|-man] [-debug=N] [-config=FILE]
[-query=FILE] [-output=FILE] [-[no]header] [QUERY]
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 4
=item B<-help>
Prints a brief help message describing the usage of the program, and then exits.
=item B<-documentation> or B<-man>
Displays the entirety of the documentation (using a pager), and then exits. To
generate a PDF version use:
pod2pdf query2csv --out=query2csv.pdf
=item B<-debug=N>
Selects a level of debugging. Debug information consists of a line or series
of lines prefixed with the characters 'D>':
=over 4
=item B<0>
No debug output is generated: this is the default
=item B<3>
Prints all data structures from options or from the database
=back
(The debug levels need work!)
=item B<-config=FILE>
This option allows an alternative configuration file to be used. This file
defines the location of the database, its port, its name and the username and
password to be used to access it. This feature was added to allow the script
to access alternative databases.
See the CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT section below for the file format.
If the option is omitted the default file is used: B<.hpr_sqlite.cfg>
=item B<-output=FILE>
This option defines an output file to receive the result of the query. If the
option is omitted the notes are written to STDOUT, allowing them to be
redirected if required.
=item B<-query=FILE>
The script needs an SQL query to be applied to the database. This may be
supplied as a file, in which case this option gives the name of the file.
Alternatively the query can be given as a delimited string on the command
line.
If neither method is used the script aborts with an error message.
=item B<-dbarg=ARG> [ B<-dbarg=ARG> ... ]
The query can have place holders ('?') in it and the corresponding values for
these placeholders can be passed to the script through the B<-dbarg=ARG>
option. The option can be repeated as many times as required and the order of
B<ARG> values is preserved.
=item B<-[no-]header>
This option allows a header to be added to the CSV output with the names of
the database columns in CSV format. By default this is not produced.
=back
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The purpose of the script is to run a query against a local database. It will
query SQLite or MySQL/MariaDB databases. The database choice is made via
a configuration file using B<dbtype = TYPE>. The default file points to the
local SQLite copy of the HPR database, but the alternative (discussed later)
can access the equivalent MySQL database.
The data returned from the query is then passed through a CSV conversion
library and the results output to the terminal or to a file.
=head1 DIAGNOSTICS
=over 4
=item B<Unable to find configuration file ...>
The nominated (or default) configuration file could not be found.
=item B<Unable to find query file ...>
The nominated query file could not be found.
=item B<Couldn't open ...: ...>
The nominated query file could not be opened.
=item B<various database errors>
An error has occurred while performing a database operation.
=item B<Failed to execute query.>
There is a mismatch between the number of placeholders in the query ('?'
characters) and the number of arguments provided through the B<-dbargs=ARG>
option. The script will attempt to analyse whether there are too many or too
few arguments
=back
=head1 CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT
The script obtains the credentials it requires to open the SQLite or MariaDB database
from a configuration file. No credentials are required for the SQLite format.
The name of the MySQL database or the SQLite file it expects is specified as
a simple name or as an absolute file path. This configuration file can be overridden
using the B<-config=FILE> option as described above.
The configuration file formats are as follows:
SQLite format:
<database>
dbtype = SQLite
name = /home/cendjm/HPR/Community_News/hpr.db
</database>
MySQL/MariaDB format:
<database>
dbtype = MySQL
host = 127.0.0.1
name = hpr_hpr
user = hpradmin
password = PASSWORD
</database>
=head1 EXAMPLES
query2csv -help
# Find tags fields shorter than 5 characters between shows 1 and 2000
query2csv -config=.hpr_sqlite.cfg \
'SELECT id,summary,tags FROM eps WHERE id BETWEEN 1 AND 2000
AND length(tags) < 5 ORDER BY id'
# Find hosts who have released HPR shows during 2025. The database
# arguments are the dates of the start and end of the year
year=2025
query2csv -query=hosts_showcount.sqlite.sql \

The script obtains the credentials it requires to open the SQLite or MariaDB database
from a configuration file. No credentials are required for the SQLite format.
The name of the MySQL database or the SQLite file it expects is specified as
a simple name or as an absolute file path. This configuration file can be overridden
using the B<-config=FILE> option as described above.
The configuration file format is as follows:
The configuration file formats are as follows:
SQLite format:
