#' Base class for all DBMS drivers (e.g., RSQLite, MySQL, PostgreSQL).
#' The virtual class `DBIDriver` defines the operations for creating
#' connections and defining data type mappings.  Actual driver classes, for
#' instance `RPostgres`, `RMariaDB`, etc. implement these operations in a
#' DBMS-specific manner.
