Don't require Go MySQL parseTime=true

[jessepeterson]

What do you want to change?

In the datatypes docs it says:

For MySQL users relying on github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql, ensure that parseTime=true is added to your database connection string.

Can there be a mode or switch that turns off this assumption? That is: any date/time field is assumed to be textual (string or []byte) rather than a time.Time{}?

Thanks!
