            Description

            The standard SQL POSITION(needle IN haystack) for finding out if one string contains another does not work on MSSQL or Oracle. I need to use this syntax for part of MDL-15605, so we need a compatibility method.

                  Method implemented, with a unit test. I have only tested on Oracle, I would be really grateful if you (Eloy) could run the new unit test (in testdml.php) on the other databases we support. Thanks.
