OK, let's put them in the registry but make them strictly optional. A
particularly conscientious database driver programmer can fill them in.

Well, class-code and subclass-code are simple parts of sqlstate so maybe
they shouldn't be there? We can decide once we're actually writing
drivers, SRFI 198 doesn't need to talk about SQL stuff.
