[Twisted-Python] dbcred and Firebird Incompatibility

that is odd.. I did do some tests with Firebird with enterprise and row, but
have since uninstalled it :(

I would guess that "password" is a key word in Firebird's SQL dialect. Maybe
we should change that column name to something less likely to cause that
kind of conflict.

First the stuff that makes sense:

---

Firebird doesn't like batched SQL statements in a single string any better
than MySQL does...

Also it doesn't like the Primary Key in dbcred's schema not being specified
as NOT NULL

In twisted_identities:

identity_name     varchar(64) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY

In twisted_services:

service_name      varchar(64) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY

---

Now for something weird...

Firebird chokes in CREATE TABLE twisted_identities on the password column...
by changing the name to identity_password it works?!?!?!?!?
