Scala Steward wants to update database-related dependencies

[SethTisue]

Over at https://github.com/slick/slick/pulls there are a bunch of Scala Steward PRs updating versions of drivers (adapters?) for postgresql and sqlite and so forth. (I already merged all the steward PRs for things like sbt plugins.)

I don't know a database from a dead badger and I don't know whether to merge these PRs. Should we just merge them and assume the likely good outweighs the possible bad? Or close them since it's possible some of the updates might somehow break something? (Or is it enough that the tests pass?)

Opinions?

(I suppose one possibility would to be merge them, but then bump our version number and add -RC1, too, to allow time for testing?)

Well.. a dead badger, as opposed to a DB, looks like we can safely merge most of them.

[SethTisue]

okay, one vote for merging. I guess I'll let this sit until March 1 or so and if no other opinions emerge, let's go for it.

(but first I need to fix CI, I tried to migrate from travis-ci.org to travis-ci.com and something went wrong, I don't know what, yet)

[SethTisue]

Travis-CI is working now.

I rebased all the steward PRs and Travis is now chewing through them one by one, which will take days: https://travis-ci.com/github/slick/slick/pull_requests . I'll merge any that pass CI.

All the PRs are merged now.
