[Postgres] allows extra options for the `INTERVAL` data type; namely fields and subsecond precision. For example `'3 years 1 second'::interval year to month` casts the interval and strips the seconds, and `'1.3333 seconds'::interval(1)` returns `1.3` seconds. This is supported by adding two optional fields to `DataType::Interval`, along with a new `enum` for the allowed fields. Note that [MSSQL] also supports similar options, but with more complicated precision syntax, e.g. `INTERVAL HOUR(p) TO SECOND(q)`. This is not implemented in this commit because I don't have a way to test it.
