I think it's a good idea to unify all the parsing that needs to be done,
if only because it reduces code duplication.

That said, this still needs some work as the various different callers
need different parsing done. For example, we only care about splitting
queries into multiple statements when using the V3 protocol, we only
care about ? placeholders when parsing a query supplied via
prepareStatement, the { call } syntax only makes sense for
CallableStatements, and there's no need to disassemble the SELECT etc if
the application never uses an updatable resultset.

I'm not sure how easy it will be to have a single flexible parser and
still have low overhead for the cases where we don't want to completely
disassemble the query.
