Bug #6382: We permit silent truncation, and probably other data corruption, in 
MySQL databases
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/6382

Branch: 


At the moment, and as seen in #6380, we permit MySQL to silently truncate long 
strings rather than raising an error.

We should probably send the appropriate set of "don't be stupid" configuration 
commands to MySQL to have it fail rather than corrupt information, including 
string truncation, magical zeroing of invalid dates, and so on.  This would 
turn these into explicit failures, generate bug reports, and end up with code 
that doesn't lose data.
