GetDataTypeName used to return DATETIME for computed columns like:
select datetime('now'), but now it's returning an empty string.

Similarly,  'select substr([name], 1, 13) as filename' returns an empty string even though name is a varchar ... .  Even if I cast the column, it doesn't return a type name ...

Computed columns do not have a declared type name; however, using the GetFieldType method should return a .NET type usable for the value.

Test case checked-in [bba40ece0b746de4].

Related to this change in 1.0.97.0:

The IDataReader.GetDataTypeName method should always return the declared type name. ** Potentially Incompatible Change **

GetFieldType(idx) for datetime('now') returns System.String.  How do I know that it's a datetime?

Expressions like datetime('now') do not have any associated column type
information for System.Data.SQLite to use as the basis for the GetFieldType().
