[IBMiOSS] Python ibm_db updates

Well, you guys asked for it and you got it:

kadler@wernstrom:~>python3
Python 3.4.4 (default, Mar 23 2016, 11:07:11)
[GCC 4.8.4] on aix6
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
import ibm_db_dbi

ibm_db_dbi.connect()
<ibm_db_dbi.Connection object at 0x3018480c>

ibm_db_dbi.pconnect()
<ibm_db_dbi.Connection object at 0x30248f2c>

Easiest way to connect to the database with Python by far. Connects to the
*LOCAL database using currently running user profile.


PTFs are coming your way soon (should be available externally within a few
days):

SI61963 (Python 3)
SI61964 (Python 2)

These PTFs also correct issues when retrieving data from timestamp columns
on IBM i 7.2+ that do not have 6 digits of precision (doesn't matter if
it's more or fewer digits, just that it's not 6) and ibm_db version
updated to 2.0.5.5.
