    @kfaraaz, the logic for all types is the same. But, still added 
`BIT`/`BOOLEAN`, `DATE`, `TIME`, `TIMESTAMP`, `INTERVAL`, `VARBINARY`, and 
`DECIMAL`. 
    
    Found several bugs, but none in the type functions. Tried to extend 
`sqlTypeOf()` to include `DECIMAL` precision and scale, but found that that 
information is missing (another bug.)
