/**
 * @defgroup schemaapi Schema API
 * @{
 * API to handle database schemas.
 *
 * A Drupal schema definition is an array structure representing one or
 * more tables and their related keys and indexes. A schema is defined by
 * hook_schema(), which usually lives in a modulename.install file.
 *
 * By implementing hook_schema() and specifying the tables your module
 * declares, you can easily create and drop these tables on all
 * supported database engines. You don't have to deal with the
 * different SQL dialects for table creation and alteration of the
 * supported database engines.
 *
 * hook_schema() should return an array with a key for each table that
 * the module defines.
 *
 * The following keys are defined:
 *   - 'description': A string in non-markup plain text describing this table
 *     and its purpose. References to other tables should be enclosed in
 *     curly-brackets. For example, the node_revisions table
 *     description field might contain "Stores per-revision title and
 *     body data for each {node}."
 *   - 'fields': An associative array ('fieldname' => specification)
 *     that describes the table's database columns. The specification
 *     is also an array. The following specification parameters are defined:
 *     - 'description': A string in non-markup plain text describing this field
 *       and its purpose. References to other tables should be enclosed in
 *       curly-brackets. For example, the node table vid field
 *       description might contain "Always holds the largest (most
 *       recent) {node_revision}.vid value for this nid."
 *     - 'type': The generic datatype: 'char', 'varchar', 'text', 'blob', 'int',
 *       'float', 'numeric', or 'serial'. Most types just map to the according
 *       database engine specific datatypes. Use 'serial' for auto incrementing
 *       fields. This will expand to 'INT auto_increment' on MySQL.
 *     - 'mysql_type', 'pgsql_type', 'sqlite_type', etc.: If you need to
 *       use a record type not included in the officially supported list
 *       of types above, you can specify a type for each database
 *       backend. In this case, you can leave out the type parameter,
 *       but be advised that your schema will fail to load on backends that
 *       do not have a type specified. A possible solution can be to
 *       use the "text" type as a fallback.
 *     - 'serialize': A boolean indicating whether the field will be stored as
 *       a serialized string.
 *     - 'size': The data size: 'tiny', 'small', 'medium', 'normal',
 *       'big'. This is a hint about the largest value the field will
 *       store and determines which of the database engine specific
 *       datatypes will be used (e.g. on MySQL, TINYINT vs. INT vs. BIGINT).
 *       'normal', the default, selects the base type (e.g. on MySQL,
 *       INT, VARCHAR, BLOB, etc.).
 *       Not all sizes are available for all data types. See
 *       DatabaseSchema::getFieldTypeMap() for possible combinations.
 *     - 'not null': If true, no NULL values will be allowed in this
 *       database column. Defaults to false.
 *     - 'default': The field's default value. The PHP type of the
 *       value matters: '', '0', and 0 are all different. If you
 *       specify '0' as the default value for a type 'int' field it
 *       will not work because '0' is a string containing the
 *       character "zero", not an integer.
 *     - 'length': The maximal length of a type 'char', 'varchar' or 'text'
 *       field. Ignored for other field types.
 *     - 'unsigned': A boolean indicating whether a type 'int', 'float'
 *       and 'numeric' only is signed or unsigned. Defaults to
 *       FALSE. Ignored for other field types.
 *     - 'precision', 'scale': For type 'numeric' fields, indicates
 *       the precision (total number of significant digits) and scale
 *       (decimal digits right of the decimal point). Both values are
 *       mandatory. Ignored for other field types.
 *     - 'binary': A boolean indicating that MySQL should force 'char',
 *       'varchar' or 'text' fields to use case-sensitive binary collation.
 *       This has no effect on other database types for which case sensitivity
 *       is already the default behavior.
 *     All parameters apart from 'type' are optional except that type
 *     'numeric' columns must specify 'precision' and 'scale', and type
 *     'varchar' must specify the 'length' parameter.
 *  - 'primary key': An array of one or more key column specifiers (see below)
 *    that form the primary key.
 *  - 'unique keys': An associative array of unique keys ('keyname' =>
 *    specification). Each specification is an array of one or more
 *    key column specifiers (see below) that form a unique key on the table.
 *  - 'foreign keys': An associative array of relations ('my_relation' =>
 *    specification). Each specification is an array containing the name of
 *    the referenced table ('table'), and an array of column mappings
 *    ('columns'). Column mappings are defined by key pairs ('source_column' =>
 *    'referenced_column').
 *  - 'indexes':  An associative array of indexes ('indexname' =>
 *    specification). Each specification is an array of one or more
 *    key column specifiers (see below) that form an index on the
 *    table.
 *
 * A key column specifier is either a string naming a column or an
 * array of two elements, column name and length, specifying a prefix
 * of the named column.
 *
 * As an example, here is a SUBSET of the schema definition for
 * Drupal's 'node' table. It show four fields (nid, vid, type, and
 * title), the primary key on field 'nid', a unique key named 'vid' on
 * field 'vid', and two indexes, one named 'nid' on field 'nid' and
 * one named 'node_title_type' on the field 'title' and the first four
 * bytes of the field 'type':
 *
 * @code
 * $schema['node'] = array(
 *   'description' => 'The base table for nodes.',
 *   'fields' => array(
 *     'nid'       => array('type' => 'serial', 'unsigned' => TRUE, 'not null' => TRUE),
 *     'vid'       => array('type' => 'int', 'unsigned' => TRUE, 'not null' => TRUE,'default' => 0),
 *     'type'      => array('type' => 'varchar','length' => 32,'not null' => TRUE, 'default' => ''),
 *     'language'  => array('type' => 'varchar','length' => 12,'not null' => TRUE,'default' => ''),
 *     'title'     => array('type' => 'varchar','length' => 255,'not null' => TRUE, 'default' => ''),
 *     'uid'       => array('type' => 'int', 'not null' => TRUE, 'default' => 0),
 *     'status'    => array('type' => 'int', 'not null' => TRUE, 'default' => 1),
 *     'created'   => array('type' => 'int', 'not null' => TRUE, 'default' => 0),
 *     'changed'   => array('type' => 'int', 'not null' => TRUE, 'default' => 0),
 *     'comment'   => array('type' => 'int', 'not null' => TRUE, 'default' => 0),

  /**
   * Change a field definition.
   *
   * IMPORTANT NOTE: To maintain database portability, you have to explicitly
   * recreate all indices and primary keys that are using the changed field.
   *
   * That means that you have to drop all affected keys and indexes with
   * db_drop_{primary_key,unique_key,index}() before calling db_change_field().
   * To recreate the keys and indices, pass the key definitions as the
   * optional $keys_new argument directly to db_change_field().
   *
   * For example, suppose you have:
   * @code
   * $schema['foo'] = array(
   *   'fields' => array(
   *     'bar' => array('type' => 'int', 'not null' => TRUE)
   *   ),
   *   'primary key' => array('bar')
   * );
   * @endcode
   * and you want to change foo.bar to be type serial, leaving it as the
   * primary key. The correct sequence is:
   * @code
   * db_drop_primary_key('foo');
   * db_change_field('foo', 'bar', 'bar',
   *   array('type' => 'serial', 'not null' => TRUE),
   *   array('primary key' => array('bar')));
   * @endcode
   *
   * The reasons for this are due to the different database engines:
   *
   * On PostgreSQL, changing a field definition involves adding a new field
   * and dropping an old one which* causes any indices, primary keys and
   * sequences (from serial-type fields) that use the changed field to be dropped.
   *
   * On MySQL, all type 'serial' fields must be part of at least one key
   * or index as soon as they are created. You cannot use
   * db_add_{primary_key,unique_key,index}() for this purpose because
   * the ALTER TABLE command will fail to add the column without a key
   * or index specification. The solution is to use the optional
   * $keys_new argument to create the key or index at the same time as
   * field.
   *
   * You could use db_add_{primary_key,unique_key,index}() in all cases
   * unless you are converting a field to be type serial. You can use
   * the $keys_new argument in all cases.
   *
   * @param $table
   *   Name of the table.
   * @param $field
   *   Name of the field to change.
   * @param $field_new
   *   New name for the field (set to the same as $field if you don't want to change the name).
   * @param $spec
   *   The field specification for the new field.
   * @param $keys_new
