tests fail with SQL Server Native Client 11.0

[GoogleCodeExporter]

... testing with the "msdriver" option of "SQL Server Native Client 11.0" and 
one of the existing tests is failing:
mssql_test.go:530: test "select cast('abc' as varchar(max))" failed: expect 
"abc", but got "\x00\x00\x00"
panic: runtime error: slice bounds out of range [recovered]
        panic: runtime error: slice bounds out of range

It is throwing the panic on column/odbc:217.  If I test with "msdriver" option 
of "SQL Server" then I do not get the error.  Do you want me to try to look 
into it before I submit the code change for review again?  Do you know what 
might be causing it?

It looks like the SQL Server Native Client 11.0 API returns a type of 
SQL_VARCHAR for varchar(max) columns but returns a special length of 0.  I 
think the fix is to check for length of 0 and if so, treat it as a non-bindable 
column.

lukemauldin,

Sounds like a plan. Would you like to send the fix? If not, I will fix it 
myself eventually.
