getDriverVersion()  to improve supportability

                 Key: DERBY-1547
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1547
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: JDBC
    Affects Versions: 10.1.3.2
            Reporter: Kathey Marsden
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 10.2.0.0


getDatabaseProductVersion and getDriverVersion() report only the four digit 
Derby version number and not the svn build number.   It would be useful to 
return  the full version including the build number  as sysinfo does: e.g. 
"10.1.2.4 - (392472)", That way it will be clear from application logs that 
collect this information exactly what revision level they are running if they 
are using rolled up fixes on the maintenance branch between releases.

There may be risk in doing this however if applications are parsing the version 
information, but hopefully they will use getDatabaseMajorVersion() , 
getDatbaseMinorVersion, getDriverMajorVersion, and getDriverMinorVersion for 
such proccessing.
