Introduce oracle.number.rounding-mode configuration property (and matching number_rounding_mode sessio property). This value will be used for rounding fractional part of Oracle NUMBER data type (without precision and scale) value to Presto DECIMAL where needed scale exceeds configured (with oracle.number.default-scale) Presto DECIMAL scale.

General changes#

Fix failure when querying /v1/resourceGroupState endpoint for non-existing resource group.

JDBC based connectors changes#

Restoring default behaviour for column with unsupported types. Such columns will be ignored. User may configure to fail such queries by using unsupported-type.handling-strategy=FAIL connector configuration property or by setting unsupported_type_handling_strategy catalog session property to FAIL.
