0.13.6.5 sqwci

These are the changes I made to get the ext-tests to work for seqprodbio on the sqwci machine.
(They are actually based on 0.13.6.5, but there is no longer a branch for that version)

sqwci does not have an internet connection and is not able to host a local database. I changed the tests to point to a remote database on seqbiopgsql.

This affected the files in ext-testing, meta-db, and webservice. 

This SHOULD NOT be merged as is, as it would no longer work on a VM.
