   … JDBC calls the driver expects
   
   Writing to an Oracle `NVARCHAR2`, `NCHAR` or `NCLOB` through `setString` 
converts the value to the **database** character set on the way in, destroying 
anything that character set cannot represent. Batches mixing short and long 
values could also raise `ORA-01461`.
   
   Each Oracle string is now bound with the call its column needs — 
`setNString` for national character columns, `setNCharacterStream` / 
`setCharacterStream` for LOBs, `setString` otherwise, with `setFormOfUse` 
applied first. This is an `IValueBinding` declared through Oracle's own type 
rules, so `Database.setValue` is unchanged and no other dialect is affected. 
Reads are untouched by design.
   
   The binding needs to know the column type, which a row on its way into a 
table does not carry, so `enrichInsertRowMeta` reads it from the target table 
once per prepared statement. That is what the new `IDatabase` default method is 
for; every other dialect ignores it.
   
   **Why the suite gains a second database:** on a Unicode database `setString` 
converts losslessly and the fault does not occur, so `0010` needs a non-Unicode 
one to reproduce it. `0009` runs the same pipelines against the existing 
container as a regression guard. Verified: against `WE8MSWIN1252` the tests 
fail without this fix and pass with it; against AL32UTF8 they pass either way.
   
   **Verification**
   
   - Oracle integration suite 10/10; `0010` fails on unpatched `main` with 
`ORA-20091`
   - 18 new unit tests; `core` (1405), Oracle, Generic, Table Output and 
Synchronize After Merge all green
   - Confirmed in production at a customer site on Oracle 19c
