Make it easier to test java.jdbc in other environments

Question

Make the versions properties in {{pom.xml}} and/or {{project.clj}}, make the database names, usernames, and passwords configurable via environment variables.

This came up via a suggestion from the PostgreSQL community -- see this pull request for guidance on what we could open up: https://github.com/clojure/java.jdbc/pull/44/files

Comments

This was closed out as "won't fix" by me since almost no one else contributed to clojure.java.jdbc and it really only needed testing to run in the CI context or on my local machine.

next.jdbc uses CircleCI and is (currently) still very self-contained in terms of testing because it uses all embedded databases (including embedded PostgreSQL).
