Replace HSQL database by H2 for EPSG factory
--------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOT-1430
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-1430
             Project: GeoTools
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core referencing
    Affects Versions: 2.5-M0
            Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux
            Assignee: Martin Desruisseaux
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.5.0


HSQL loads the full EPSG database in memory before usage, which is slow and 
consume a lot of memory (4 Mb). H2 has been reported faster and more reasonable 
on memory usage. Furthermore, H2 is under consideration for adoption by the 
Geoserver project, and we will probably want to avoid usage of 2 database 
engines in the same JVM.

Given that the H2 API is very close to the HSQL one, it should be easy to 
switch from HSQL to H2. But we may need to wait for one remaining issue before 
we can switch:
