I needed expanded functionality for specifying parameters in published SQL View layers, so I have implemented it into the publish_featurestore_sqlview method.
Specific things to note:
New optional parameter parameters, which is an iterable of dicts with names that correspond (snake_case to camelCase) to the necessary XML entries used by Geoserver to define the parameters for SQL Views (docs)
Totally reworked TestFeatures to account for these changes, and made it automatically build up the necessary database and geoserver content, and tearing it down at the end.
To the above point, I also expanded the stuff in tests/common.py to allow you to specify a database in which to run tests. Maybe some of the current "local only" tests can be refactored to use this as well.
Two new dev dependencies were introduced, I hope that that isn't a problem. They are sqlalchemy and psycopg2, used to work with the database when setting up & tearing down the database during testing.
Let me know what you think, I can tweak this further
