Summary: support for no terminator in bcp format file

Initial Comment:
bcp_colfmt requires a null pointer when specifying no terminator, and
currently barfs when zero length is supplied with non-null pointer (as is the
case when specifying an empty string for terminator in the format file).

The attached patch fixes the parsing of the bcp format file to pass a null
pointer when an empty string was specified as terminator.

NB: a nice side effect of this is the possibility to use a named pipe as
input to freebcp

When specifying a prefix length and no terminator for all columns in the
format file, freebcp will not perform any fseek on the input stream, allowing
the use of named pipes.
