It seems that providers need to support either location OR datasource. I
think we can switch on support for CATALOG now, turn off LOCATION at a
later time, and leave just CATALOG and DATASOURCE.

I will probably need to add a check (and a failure message) in case both
location AND catalog are used. This seems safe enough, as the message
can give a link or something to a web page explaining the change.
