Description

@deonav

Describe the Feature

If a column in an Oracle relation is defined with type varchar2(32 char) then the data_type member of the dbt Column class for that column should return varchar2(32 char) not varchar2(32), since these are not necessarily the same (depending on NLS settings and use of multibyte character encodings).
