If your host has cPanel then you'd need to use the cPanel driver. You can only use the SQL driver if you have directed access to the mail server database.

I'm going to guess that if you don't know how to access the mail server database you don't have access to it. Like I said before if your server has cPanel you need to use the cPanel driver.

No. Passwords are not stored in Roundcube, merely passed on to the mail host. The password plugin is intended to communicate with the password change routines on the mailhost.
