Description:
The MySqlParameter.Clone() method doesn't copy the values of the Size, Scale, Precision, IsNullable, and SourceColumnNullMapping properties to the cloned object.

How to repeat:
Execute the following C# code:

var parameter = new MySqlParameter
{
	Size = 1,
	Scale = 2,
	Precision = 3,
	IsNullable = true,
	SourceColumnNullMapping = true,
};

var clone = parameter.Clone();

Console.WriteLine(clone.Size); // prints 0, expected 1
Console.WriteLine(clone.Scale); // prints 0, expected 2
Console.WriteLine(clone.Precision); // prints 0, expected 3
Console.WriteLine(clone.IsNullable); // prints False, expected True
Console.WriteLine(clone.SourceColumnNullMapping); // prints False, expected True

Suggested fix:
Copy the values of these properties in Clone().

Hello Bradley,

Thank you for the report and test case.

This patch fixed a bug that prevented the MySqlParameter.Clone method to copy all the MySqlParameter properties.

Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL Connector/NET 8.0.32 release, and here's the proposed changelog entry from the documentation team:

Values of the Size, Scale, Precision, IsNullable, and
SourceColumnNullMapping properties were omitted during the copy operation
performed by the MySqlParameter.Clone() method.

Thank you for the bug report.
