When converting null values
to database column values,
return null if column is
nullable, otherwise try
to cast it to the property
type, and if not, return
'null'.
MySQL expects reverse order of latitude and longitude
from the way we use it in LoopBack, so switch the order
when saving and loading Point spatial type we use for
Point/GeoPoint.
This commit contains all previous work after rebase went badly
RE: Pull Request requested by @kjdelisle regarding #149 following my
proposed solution "A" at #149 (comment).
As mentioned in the post linked above, this change allows the
underlying mysqljs/mysql module to handle Date object serialization
and removes the forced conversion of Dates to UTC Strings.
An opt-out fallback to forced coercion to UTC is included,
which was modeled after #265 from @darknos .

Per MySQL docs
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/date-and-time-types.html):
"MySQL permits you to store a “zero” value of '0000-00-00' as a
“dummy date.” This is in some cases more convenient than using NULL
values, and uses less data and index space. To disallow '0000-00-00',
enable the NO_ZERO_DATE mode.
“Zero” date or time values used through Connector/ODBC are converted
automatically to NULL because ODBC cannot handle such values."
As we are not using Connector/ODBC we need to handle this ourself.
