Implements encoders for datetime.timedelta → INTERVAL DAY(9) TO FRACTION(5)
and IntervalYM → INTERVAL YEAR(9) TO MONTH. Both follow the 2-byte-length-
prefixed BCD wire format established in Phase 6.c (DECIMAL/DATETIME).
The default qualifier choice is generous: DAY(9) covers any timedelta,
YEAR(9) handles ±1B years. JDBC defaults to smaller widths (DAY(2)/YEAR(4))
trading safety for compactness — we make the opposite trade.
FRACTION(5) is the Informix precision ceiling — sub-10us intervals can't
round-trip cleanly. Same limitation JDBC has.
Six integration tests, all green on first run against live Informix —
the synthetic round-trip in the test framework caught every framing bug
locally, before integration tests even started. This is the dividend from
owning both decoder and encoder.
Total: 53 unit + 88 integration = 141 tests.
Type matrix update: INTERVAL now has both decode + encode. Only BLOB/CLOB
and BYTE/TEXT remain among the common types.
