Modify the setPassword.sh script for all single-instance database projects (except 11g XE) to correctly set the PDBADMIN password when one or more PDBs have been added.

The updated script is identical for all 8 affected projects. Instead of parsing the directory names under $ORACLE_BASE/oradata/$ORACLE_SID to find the name of the PDB (which doesn't work when there are multiple PDBs), it queries v$pdbs and creates a PL/SQL script that sets the PDBADMIN password in all open PDBs.

Tested with both VirtualBox and libvirt providers.

Fixes #295
