Persistent sandbox databases

Boros Gábor requested to merge github/fork/omarkhan/external-databases into master

Created by: omarkhan

This pull request adds support for instances to use external mysql and mongo databases. The goal is to preserve databases during sandbox reprovisioning.

Default databases for new instances can be set through the INSTANCE_MYSQL_URL and INSTANCE_MONGO_URL settings.

If the default is to use external databases but the PR submitter would like to use local databases, she can include (ephemeral databases) in the pull request body on the same line as the sandbox url to override the default.
