varchar([n]) fields are introspected as textfields without max_length

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Reproduce the problem:

1. add a field type varchar(8) to a table in SQL 2005
2. run django's inspectdb tool
3. behold the output where the varchar field in question will be a textfield 
with no max_length set

Using Django_pyodbc 1.4 on a Windows 7 machine

A VARCHAR([n]), like NVARCHAR([N]) should have a max_length property complying 
to the given lenght.
I have fixed this by simply changing:

"Database.SQL_VARCHAR:           'TextField'," 

to 

"Database.SQL_VARCHAR:           'CharField',"

in introspection.py.
I don't know if this is the most elegant solution.

Thanks,

Erik
