Bug description:emulated statements let value dictate parameter type

Description:
------------
See test script. I would expect both statements to return NULL. Given
the looseness of PHP's type system, this feels appropriate and safer.
There's a related issue where numbers can end up treated as strings.

Test script:
---------------
$db = new PDO(...);

$stmt = $db->prepare("SELECT :null");
$stmt->bindValue(':null', null, PDO::PARAM_NULL);
$stmt->execute();
var_dump($stmt->fetchAll()); // NULL

$stmt = $db->prepare("SELECT :null");
$stmt->bindValue(':null', 0, PDO::PARAM_NULL);
$stmt->execute();
var_dump($stmt->fetchAll()); // 0
