Tablename COLLECTION should be changed

The table COLLECTION in the DBB ddl is named after the z/OS DB2 reseved word COLLECTION. The table should be renamed (e.g. DBBCOLECTION) so that customers don't have to do changes to the ddl before its execution.

    DBB v2.0.1 now ships with an updated DB2 z/OS DDL that renames the COLLECTION table to DBBCOLLECTION.

    We have not decided whether we want to rename the table or qualify it in a way. But we will make a change to avoid customers making changes to the DDL. We are accepting this idea for a future implementation
