When trying to pass stored procedure VARCHAR(MAX) parameters (using
SYBVARCHAR for the parameter type), the value is truncated at 8000. This is
due to the `tds_fix_column_size` method limiting the value to 8000 because
the `column_varint_size` of the column == 2.

Based on the comment in `tds_fix_column_size` (src/tds/query.c), it seems
as if this is unexpected:

    /* note that varchar(max)/varbinary(max) have a varint of 8 */

The comment above indicates that this should be supported. Am I missing
something or using the db-lib API incorrectly? My code is working fine
otherwise.
