Summary:                    [patch] Fetching a NULL value from database returns
"NULL" string
Description: 
How to reproduce (asumming SQL query "SELECT some_null_col
FROM table WHERE where id = 1" returns NULL):

extensions.conf:
exten => 601,1,MYSQL(Connect connid1 ${DBHOST} ${DBUSER} ${DBPASS}
${DBNAME})
exten => 601,n,MYSQL(Query resultid1 ${connid1} SELECT some_null_col
FROM table WHERE where id = 1)
exten => 601,n,MYSQL(Fetch fetchid1 ${resultid1} X-DB-null)
exten => 601,n,MYSQL(Clear ${resultid1})
exten => 601,n,MYSQL(Disconnect ${connid1})
exten => 601,n,NoOp(X-DB-null: ${X-DB-null})
exten => 601,n,NoOp(ISNULL = ${ISNULL(${X-DB-null})})

console:
   -- Executing [601 at test:1] MYSQL("SIP/OpenSER-082cf100", "Connect
connid1 mysql-ro asterisk pass1 test") in new stack
   -- Executing [601 at test:2] MYSQL("SIP/OpenSER-082cf100", "Query
resultid1 1 SELECT some_null_col FROM table WHERE where id = 1") in
new stack
   -- Executing [601 at test:3] MYSQL("SIP/OpenSER-082cf100", "Fetch
fetchid1 2 X-DB-null") in new stack
   -- Executing [601 at test:4] MYSQL("SIP/OpenSER-082cf100", "Clear 2")
in new stack
   -- Executing [601 at test:5] MYSQL("SIP/OpenSER-082cf100",
"Disconnect 1") in new stack
   -- Executing [601 at test:6] NoOp("SIP/OpenSER-082cf100", "X-DB-null:
NULL") in new stack
   -- Executing [601 at test:7] NoOp("SIP/OpenSER-082cf100", "ISNULL =
0") in new stack

So looks like NULL value fetched from a MySQL table is converted into a
'NULL' string and ISNULL function returns 0.

I think this needs a configuration option, to avoid breaking existing
dialplans.  Related issue implements an initial configuration file, since
this module previously had none.
