Comment:

 Part of the problem comes from having multiple indexes on the same column
 (for example unique on firstname, lastname + a normal index on firstname).
 In that case it was ordering dependent if the column was seen as unique or
 not.

 The attached patch simplifies the SQL, removes non-indexed columns from
 the output and in addition handles the multiple indexes for the same
 column by using GROUP BY + MAX.

 I was wrong about the get_indexes calls taking a lot of time in the test
 suite. The first call takes around a second, but after that the query plan
 is cached and subsequent calls to get_indexes will be fast enough to not
 be a bottleneck.

 The introspection + inspectdb tests pass on Oracle 11g.
