SQL Azure requires a primary AKA clustered key on every table.
This adds a dummy INT column to act as key,
avoiding possible duplicate entries.
so that these columns can support bigger (speak: huge) tables

Two problems were encountered when installing on AzureSQL:
-Azure SQL does not support the ON clause of T-SQL
-Azure SQL requries a clustered index AKA primary key on all tables
The fix is makeshift; it introduces questionable primary indices, which should be replaced with auto--increment columns.

* prep-release-3.0.11:
[ticket/10965] Database update was referring to 3.0.5 instead of 3.0.11-RC1
[ticket/10965] Introduce a new profile field option to display no value
By default the 3.0.10 behaviour is kept, profile fields will not show up
if they have either not yet been selected or in case of an optional
dropdown field if the novalue option was selected.

Changed the fopen mode from "wt" to "wb" as requested in the PR.
The objective behind this is to prevent writting stuff like "\r\r\n" in
windows

This especially also fixes the problem of the copyright symbol being
represented using 0xA9, which is neither ASCII nor the appropriate UTF8
byte sequence for the copyright symbol.

The database update drops any key of the same name (potential primary key) and
afterwards the column. This does not work on some of the supported DBMS and
needs further changes.

- Column names are limited to 30 characters
- Index names are limited to 31 characters.
On some dbms the index name contains both table name and actual index name
so the limit applies to the sum of the lenghts of table name and index name.
- Auto incremented column names are limited to 26 characters to provide an
additional 4 characters for sequence names
The code for firebird auto increment support using generators/sequences with
triggers was copied from create_schema_files.php

A new table was created to save all failed login attempts with
corresponding information on username, ip and useragent. By default
the limit is 50 login attempts within 6 hours per IP. The limit is
relatively high to avoid big problems on sites behind a reverse
proxy that don't receive the forwarded-for value as REMOTE_ADDR but
see all users as coming from the same IP address. But if these
users run into problems a special forwarded-for option is available
to limit logins by forwarded-for value instead of ip.

Since knowledge base instructions tell users to place this script
in the root of the forum, use './' as phpbb root path. Actual
initialization code copied from check_flash_bbcodes.php.
PHPBB3-10058
There are currently two hard limits for the number of BBCodes
allowed. One is enforced by the type of the `bbcode_id` column,
the other by an hard limit in `acp/acp_bbcode.php`. However this
limit can never be reached due to the size of the database column.
Suggested fix involves adding a new constant to define the max.
number of BBCodes (as with smilies) and chaning the database
column from a tinyint to a smallint to actually allow 1511 BBCodes
