Looking at the sqlite docs: unless there are type conversions, but in this
case there aren't any.
Nor should there be any of these conversions in our code as we don't use
utf-16
You might be able to trigger them when accessing wc.db with different tools
that do insert some utf-16, but I don't think we should update all our code
to handle that, for some theoretical corner cases.
