Your patch hard codes this for a couple of types, but it doesn't seem to
be a general solution. It seems impossible to enumerate all the
possible types that require quoting. What about any user defined types,
we can't possible know what those are in the driver?
If you were going to hardcode a list, you need to hardcode the list of
types that don't require quoting because that should at least be a fixed
list. A more general solution would be to put this information into
TypeInfoCache so you could say something like
TypeInfoCache.requiresQuoting(typeOid).
