This PR replaces #1122.
This patch changes the extension to return column data as zvals instead of char arrays. If the stringify attribute is set to true, data will be returned as strings (existing behavior); if false, data will be handled the same way as the mssql extension.
I verified the test output using the existing code to make sure my updates didn't introduce any regressions.
I'd recommend getting this into PHP-5.6 because it'll smooth out the mssql -> pdo_dblib migration path, as described in #1780.
