koha-create --request-db should be able to accept a dbhost option and write
that to koha-conf.xml

When installing koha via the debian packages with the database on a separate
host, as per
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Install_Koha_3.6_on_Debian_squeeze_using_a_separate_MySQL_server,
it is suggested that you run ..

 koha-create --request-db mylibrary

This creates a text file with the appropriate details to use to create the
mysql database, it also writes the database name, user and password into the
/etc/koha/sites/mylibrary/koha-conf.xml file.

But this process leaves the <hostname> unpopulated, essentially defaulting to
'localhost'.  That config option has to be manually entered for a remote
database host.

Ideally one should be able to use ..

 koha-create --request-db mylibrary --dbhost databaseserver

koha-create should also return details on where to change the hostname of the
database server (whether the --dbhost option is used or not).
