Change to using pyodbc to run SQL on IBM i #479

@edmundreinhardt

Description

@edmundreinhardt

Currently in src/makei/ibm_job.py
there is a dependency on ibm_db_dbi
BUT
development on this package is frozen and it require python 3.9 and will not work on any later pythons.

Please migrate to using pyodbc which should have the same functionality and will work with newer pythons.

Then you can remove all of the python3.9 shebangs (#!/usr/bin/env python3.9) and just require python3
Update the install instructions in docs/contributing/rpm-install.md

and the rpm spec template in tools/release/tobi.spec.template
both the pyodbc and python levels which can now be >=

Also there is a lot of mocking of ibm_db for local testing that needs to be updated.
