/**
 * Generic temptables object store
 *
 * Provides support to databases lacking some "expeted behaviour" related
 * with some operations with temporary tables like:
 *
 *   - databases not retrieving temp tables from information schema tables (mysql)
 *   - databases using a different name schema for temp tables (like mssql).
 *
 * Basically it works as a simple store of created temporary tables, providing
 * some simple getters/setters methods. Each database can extend it for its own
 * purposes (for example, return correct name, see the mssql implementation)
 *
 * The unique instance of the object by database connection is shared by the database
 * and the sql_generator, so both are able to use its facilities, with the final goal
 * of doing temporary tables support 100% cross-db and transparent within the DB API.
 *
 * Only drivers needing it will use this store. Neither moodle_database (abstract) or
 * databses like postgres need this, because they don't lack any temp functionality.º:w
