Code coverage is not collected on Oracle builds

Problem

1. ContinuousPHP does not integrate with CodeCov or Coveralls. Given the quality of their technical support and out of date documentation, I'm not even going to file an issue. Especially because the trust between the services needs to be on both ends.
2. We don't run tests for pdo_oci at all since after fixing the extension installation in Switched from PHPBrew-based configuration to the Docker-based #3720, it's broken again. The documentation is outdated and still suggests to use PHPBrew to install extensions.

Migration challenges

There's no purely legal way to install an Oracle database in a public CI environment (see wnameless/docker-oracle-xe-11g#118, oracle/docker-images#1156) but there's a lot of bootleg distributions available including GitHub.

UPD: https://hub.docker.com/r/wnameless/oracle-xe-11g-r2/ looks alive and kicking so far.

For example, the IBM DB2 client library that our builds depend on is also publicly unavailable but we've been successfully using a copy distributed by a third-party since 2018.
