Bug #28820 Varchar Field length is reported as larger than actual

Description:
Varchar/text field lengths are reported 3 times greater than actual character length. This is due to the use of Utf8 in the character_set variables.

How to repeat:
Use SQLDescribeCol for a Varchar field

Suggested fix:
Report correct character length of columns.

Verified as described with attached test case:

Connecting to myodbc1
COLUMN_NAME -> VCfld
COLUMN_TYPE -> 12
COLUMN_LENGTH -> 75
SQL_DESC_BASE_COLUMN_NAME -> VCfld
SQL_DESC_LABEL -> VCfld
SQL_DESC_TYPE_NAME -> varchar
SQL_DESC_DISPLAY_SIZE  -> 75
SQL_DESC_LENGTH  -> 75
SQL_DESC_OCTET_LENGTH   -> 75

I got equal resul fort CHAR field and ODBC driver 5.0.12
In table has field length 10 but ODBC driver return 30.

drop table XXT003I; 
create table XXT003I (XX000 Integer, XX001 CHAR(10) ) ENGINE=INNODB DEFAULT CHARSET=cp1250; 
INSERT INTO XXT003I (XX000,XX001) VALUES (1,'ěščřž');

config 2dc-180 EXIT SQLDescribeCol with return code 0 (SQL_SUCCESS) 
HSTMT 020D1BB0 
UWORD 1 
UCHAR * 0x0012F3A4 [ 5] "XX001" 
SWORD 255 
SWORD * 0x0012F11A (5) 
SWORD * 0x01C49544 (1) 
SQLULEN * 0x01C4954C (30) 
SWORD * 0x01C49550 (0) 
SWORD * 0x0012F112 (1)

The fix for Bug #32161 actually cleared this up, because fields in a character set different from that of the connection's "ANSI" character set are identified as SQL_WVARCHAR columns.
