1.0.8: Upgrade to Metabase v0.50.36

Summary

This release adapts the driver to Metabase v0.50.36.

The driver now supports Metabase feature :describe-fks. This allows Metabase to retrieve metadata about Foreign Key Constraints from Exasol.

Also the driver now replaces the deprecated method sql-jdbc.execute/connection-with-timezone with sql-jdbc.execute/do-with-connection-with-options. This will allow using the driver with later Metabase versions and avoids the following warning in the Metabase log:

WARN sql-jdbc.execute :: connection-with-timezone is deprecated in Metabase 0.47.0. Implement do-with-connection-with-options instead.

Known Issues

The driver reports version 1.0.7 instead of 1.0.8 in the Metabase log.
