Assert failure retreiving a TIMESTAMP value

[Abscissa]

Retrieving a TIMESTAMP value causes an assert to fail at location mysql/connection.d(1046).

I'm still investigating this further...

It seems that TIMESTAMP values have the "unsigned" flag set, unlike DATETIME and other non-numeric types. Unfortunately, I can't find any documentation regarding the intended behavior of the unsigned flag on non-numeric types. So I don't know why this is, or whether or not it's always the case.

However, the MySQL protocol's documentation does state that TIMESTAMP's actual value information (aside from the flags) is exactly the same as DATETIME. So, ignoring the "unsigned" flag should work fine. And indeed it does seem to work fine for both me and at least one other user.

In any case, the triggered assertion turned out be faulty anyway: It erroneously assumed that non-integer types cannot be unsigned. This was a false assumption: Not only does TIMESTAMP (apparently) report itself as unsigned, but MySQL also permits floating-point and fixed-point types to be unsigned.

There is a similar assert within the method consumeBinaryValueIfComplete.
