rasdl's --database parameter ignored

Description
The rasdl —database parameter is effectively only used for display purposes. For example, I erroneously thought I could print the data type definitions for my data base 'PS9RASBASE' with
$ rasdl —database PS9RASBASE -p
but I still got the RASBASE type definitions (a database which I happen to have also on my system). Furthermore, if —connect and —database are used together they're not checked for consistency. For example the command below effectively shows the type definitions for my PS9RASBASE database, but pretends it shows the ones of GUNDEL_GAUKEL, which doesn't even exist on my system:
$ rasdl —database GUNDEL_GAUKEL -connect PS9RASBASE -p

rasdaman for now does not support multiple databases (a prerequisite is coming in 9.0: individual locks), so not much use yet, but reserved.

—database doesn't seems to be used for anything at all, not even in source:reladminif/databaseifcommon.cc
I'm not sure what it's purpose should be, probably should be removed?
