Background
Previously, the ignoreparams connection string parameter allowed users to specify unrecognized parameters to be ignored during validation. However, there was no option to skip validation for all parameters in one step.
The change adds support for a special keyword, IgnoreAll, that can be assigned to the ignoreparams parameter. When this keyword is used, the Exasol JDBC driver will automatically skip validation for all unrecognized connection string parameters.
Improvement
The IgnoreAll keyword as a value to the ignoreparams parameter provides users the ability to deliberately deactivate the validation mechanism for advanced use cases without having to list each "unknown parameter" explicitly.
