It looks like this is an "always on" feature. There's a PDO attribute,
PDO::ATTR_STRINGIFY_FETCHES, that's intended to allow toggling. Since this
is a functionality change, I'd suggest supporting it. It'll make it easier
for users to migrate if they have any baked-in assumptions around getting
strings back.

Thanks,
Adam
