Add a StatementFiller to be able to provide a Bean for updates, instead of bean 
values.

                 Key: DBUTILS-47
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DBUTILS-47
             Project: Commons DbUtils
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 1.1
            Reporter: Olivier Grégoire
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.2


When using the QueryRunner, in conjunction with the ResultSetHandler interface, 
we got awesome results. Everything seems to be easier... except when it comes 
to update an object to the database.

To solve this, what I request is adding a new interface that allows to easily 
fill a statement with a bean, instead of a list of values (Object).

The interface should be something like this:

public interface StatementFiller {
  public void fillStatement (Statement stmt, Object bean) throws SQLException;
}

and can be called in an update() like this:

        public int update(Connection connection, String sql, StatementFiller 
filler, Object bean)
                throws SQLException {
                PreparedStatement statement = null;
                try {
                        statement = this.prepareStatement(connection, sql);
                        filler.fillStatement(statement, bean);
                        return statement.executeUpdate();
                } catch (SQLException e) {
                        throw this.nestException(e, sql, bean);
                } finally {
                        close(statement);
                }
        }

What is clearly the advantage of this? Simply that we can use only one 
QueryRunner and any amount of statement fillers, just like there exist a lot of 
ResultSetHandler. There is no more need to override the QueryRunner's 
statementFiller.

To keep backward compatibility, QueryRunner may implement that interface and be 
provided as the default Filler, so the current behavior is not lost.

(Sorry for not showing the actual sources of DButils: I don't have them right 
here, I used my tweaked version instead).
