Description
We should have a way to use Flyway in more ways than we do now. Let's enable running against a database that has been loaded a database snapshot or even some live database.
Use cases:
- Update some database. (To make multiple update steps at one or other reasons)
- Test migrations.
- Try out some instance specific data migrations.
PR forthcoming.

Research direction
Start by reviewing how Flyway migrations currently run through Payara and identify the existing migration entry point. Define how migrations would run against a loaded snapshot or live database, and verify the three listed use cases before considering the work complete.
