Issue DM-1669: Explore queries for Qserv database.
Use a local database here at IPAC with 5 Qserv tables in it. Looked at several Python query interfaces. Used the pymysql interface for testing because it's pure Python and because I found reports suggesting it was almost as fast as the mysqldb interface that requires C language libraries. Ad hoc queries can be constructed in three lines of code, so useable in a science environment. Found a couple of bugs in Qserv that were reported.
