This PR contains the necessary adjustments for passing extra_params to providers and allow for custom behaviour in plugins.
Related Issue / discussion
Fixes #1667
Additional information
In the itemtypes a new variable is introduced. It contains a dictionary with unknown request parameters, basically anything can be passed to the request without changing behavior except there are no errors facing the client. The variable extra_params is then passed to the providers and accessible there.
Another oracle specific change is the provider definition is getting passed to the manipulation class for possible adjustments to queries and filtering using the geometry column. Because it could also be named diffenently the name must be accessible later on.
