Description:
Add to MySqlDataReader one function, and change other to return useful Exception
1. GetFieldType with column name
2. GetOridinal - return what name of not fouund column

How to repeat:
Use MySQLDataReader to fetch data from MySQL Database

Suggested fix:
1. GetFieldType with column name:

	public override double GetFieldType(string column)
		{
			return GetFieldType(GetOrdinal(column));
		}

datareader.cs, line 439

2. GetOridinal - return what name of not-fouund column:

            throw new IndexOutOfRangeException(Resources.CouldNotFindColumnName + ":" +name);

ResultSet.cs, line 114

I think that this two simple changes can make the DataReader more useful and more simple to use.
