IP check - is the dependency on the Informix JDBC driver

The license is probably a problem for redistribution (as in: when the
the driver jar file is included in a download provided by osgeo - eg.
when providing this as an extension for geoserver) but is of no concern
as a dependency.
I don't think that could be resolved afaik there are no open source
alternatives; informix users would need to download and accept the license.
Note that the driver is available - but without source code - in Maven
central: https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/ibm/informix/jdbc/4.50.7.1/
so it can easily be accessed with Maven; not like eg. the old Oracle
jdbc drivers.

if unsupported, it won't be part of the release (as in release artifacts
that can be downloaded)

Some other modules in unsupported run online tests eg. elasticsearch
(that seems the only one though)
