Fetch and insert DATETIME and INTERVAL values

When an application fetches or inserts a DATETIME or INTERVAL value, must ensure that the qualifier field of the host variable is valid:

When an application fetches a DATETIME value into a datetime host variable or inserts a DATETIME value from a datetime host variable, it must ensure that the dt_qual field of the dtime_t structure is valid.
When an application fetches an INTERVAL value into an interval host variable or inserts an INTERVAL value from an interval host variable, it must ensure that the in_qual field of the intrvl_t structure is valid.
