Summary: check_oracle check for valid login

Initial Comment:
Some sites enable auditing / alarming of failed logins, and do not allow monitoring tools to be installed directly on their oracle server. This means that --db and --login are not suitable for those installations. 

A new option along the lines of --validlogin would be beneficial. It should attempt to log with a command-line provided name and password, and check for the output 'Connected to' in the response.
