Fallback to Db2 when IDAA replication is lagging

When Db2 detects that IDAA replication is lagging under the integrated synchronization process, the query waits for replication to catch up before being served from the accelerator. We need an option controlled by a package parm or zparm that will execute the query inside Db2 so that when we have high spike activity of updates, the read queries are still consistent at the expense of increased Db2 utilization.

    IDAA supports SET CURRENT QUERY ACCELERATION WAITFORDATA for this use case, but Db2 HPU doesn't support it; the client agreed to open an AHA Idea against Db2 HPU for this support. Currently, there is nothing to be done on IDAA side.
