Well, there is no value in java.sql.Types which represents the serial
data type. We could possibly return "serial" as the TYPE_NAME column
instead of int, but this could cause problems for other people who expect
it to return int. I would suggest examining COLUMN_DEF to see if it is
calling a sequence. This is kind of hack, but so is the serial type.
