The JDBC 4 spec says "The contents and syntax of the subname will
depend on the subprotocol.". Thus the format is implementation defined.
Derby's database names are a reflection of file system names and those
allow spaces and to be ease-of-use Derby allows direct use of
File.getName()/getPath() without encoding.
