Report not possible during time-shift

[jakobbraun]

In case your Exasol database uses a timezone with a time-shift as DBTIMEZONE, this adapter will not report the hour when the time is shifted back, since Exasol stores the statistics entries in the DBTIMEZONE and by that, the log entries are ambiguous in that hour.

Steps for Fix:

• Change column EXA_STATISTICS table to use TIMESTAMP WITH LOCAL TIMEZONE instead of TIMESTAMP or store entries in UTC.
• Change this adapter to use the new API

@jakobbraun: I don't see this happening in the core anytime soon. Please write into the user guide as known limitation and close the ticket.
