Report the requirements for per-column data types in terms of their VOTable encoding (datatype, arraysize and xtype attributes) rather than their database types, since the choice of database type, especially at TAP 1.1, is purely an implementation detail. Also ensure that the s_region type is compatible with DALI regions.
